Extensive renovation of the Takahuhti stone school (1939), home to elementary and pre-school teaching. A new three-storey daycare centre, joined to the school by a link building, is added to the courtyard, replacing a relocatable daycare unit.

The new wing houses a sports and assembly hall, kitchen, dining halls for both school and daycare, and student health care facilities. The yards and outdoor storage buildings are redesigned to serve both users.
