| Noarootsi Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see Pürksi's schoolhouse (1987, architect M. Nummert) was one of the first of its kind in Estonia. Pürksi's schoolhouse (1987, architect M. Nummert) was one of the first of its kind in Estonia. Noarootsi is a parish just north of Haapsalu on the Estonian west coast. Its Swedish name is Nuckö and up to the early 1940s the population predominantly consisted of a Swedish-speaking minority. Most of these fled to Sweden when the Soviet army occupied Estonia . After independence from Russia the links with Sweden have been resumed and are today rather intensive. The Swedish language is compulsory in Noarootsi Gümnasium (secondary school) and many of the refugees have come back to their old farms as summer guests. Thus, Noarootsi has a special interest for tourists from Sweden . It is also an interesting area for bird watchers with a centre at the Lyckholm (Estonian Saari) manor. Large numbers of migrating water-birds rest here in the extensive reedbeds. During the Soviet time Noarootsi was a “restricted” area and even Soviet citizens needed a special permit to travel there because of its position at the sea. Remnants of watchtowers and various installations can be seen here and there. There are also the ruins of an impressive building from where all air traffic over Sweden could be monitored. ______People Edit This Pürksi's manor house Pürksi's manor house Noarootsi Gümnaasium We are located in the centre of a peninsula in the small village of Pürksi, which has beautiful scenery and nature, and is situated on the west coast of Estonia. It is 100 kilometres from Tallinn and 35 kilometres from Haapsalu if travelling on land. But just across the bay, Noarootsi is only a few kilometres from Haapsalu. Teaching takes place in two buildings, a schoolhouse that was built at the end of the 1980's, and in the manor house, which is restored. Language lessons take place in the manor house and there are also two homeroom classes situated there. Between lessons you have to walk between the two buildings, which gives us the opportunity to breathe fresh air. Students live in dormitory apartments with all the comforts and it is all for free. Most of the apartments in the village have student housing. At the school's cafeteria you can eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. During your free time you can study, visit other students, sit in the library or in the computer class, which are opened in the evenings as well. The idea to establish Noarootsi Gümnaasium germinated in 1988. Support was obtained from the Swedish Estonian Culture Club and its sister organization in Finland. Through that connection the school got its first Swedish teacher, Virve Kuula. The first teaching aids in were also provided by Finland. The idea of establishing a school was also supported by the Estonian Education Minister, Rein Loik, the Lääne County Department of Education Director, Hannes Danilov, and the Lääne County Governor, Andres Lipstok. Noarootsi Gümnaasium started on September 1, 1990 in the same building with Noarootsi School (grades 1-9). In the same year the restoration of Pürksi manor house began. In 1995, when it was finished, some of Noarootsi Gümnaasium's classrooms moved there. The originality of Noarootsi Gymnasium lies with teaching Swedish and the Nordic culture. Studying in Finland and Sweden helps students to learn Swedish at a high level. The best students have the possibility to live and study in Sweden, Finland or Denmark for a year. As of 2005, thirteen classes have graduated from Noarootsi Gümnaasium. http://www.ng.edu.ee/eng/en.htm |
