5. K-30 Lounge – an adult students’ own living room
K-30 Lounge – an adult student’s own living room Need a moment of respite during the school day? K-30 Lounge is a meeting place for adult students at TAMK, where you can relax with other adult students or take a moment alone.
The lounge is like a living room: you can come and chat, do some coloring or origami – or just be. There is a facilitator who will warmly welcome you, whether you are alone or with a friend. You can also come and eat your own snacks.
The lounge will be held in Parvi (B1-24) on Fridays from 11:30 to 12:30, on the following days:
- 30.1.
- 13.2.
- 13.3.
- 27.3.
- 10.4.
- 24.4.
- 8.5.
The group is aimed specifically at blended learning students and other adult learners – but age will not be checked at the door! Come as you are, even if it’s just to drop by. 🙂
