Hello from YA in Gamla Vasa, Finland

Hello, my name is Hans Wickman and I ám study in Åbo Akademy, Vasa. This blog-projekt is a part of our practice-period and my practice school are Yrkesakademin in Ostrobothnia/Gamla Vasa, also called Kungsgården.

Here is same Pictures from the outside of the Buildings.


This is the new big bulding of Yrkesakademin/Gamla Vasa and it's a modern flat house.
 
 
 
The Garden-school, where I doing my practice is a little bit behind
 
 
 
The name 'Kungsgården' comes from this old bulding. The Swedich monark builds this in 1600s when Finland vas a part of Sweden. About 200 years ago, when Finland becomes a part of Russia and Csar Nikolaj own the house, he started the farmers school here. When Finland became free from Russia in 1918 the school was saved and still going on, but much bigger.

      Our students start at 'level 1' in 4 mounths, from 1 of sept to 1 january. In this period they all reed the same, called basic. We are tree teachers and I Learning in 'growing plants' which means what the plants need for the living-process. What made it fresch and what can do it ill. We hav spoken a bit of the nutrients and tomorrow we shall look what happens in deficit of nutrients, both on plants and for human.
      After christmas the students selecting; plant cultivation, greensector (garden architecture) or commersial sector. And after 1 year they are Gardener.
      The school have no moore own greenhouses, because they costs a lot and insteadt we try tho send our students out to the Companys in same periods. (Sorry my English isn't very good)
