Teamwork
Since our subjects coexist very well together, we also put some emphasis on cross curricula work to exploit the competences we have in the institution.
We have both big stage projects with all the main subjects involved, and smaller arrangements with two main subjects cooperating. As an example, the Music production group and the Music group may collaborate on recording music, whereas the Music production group and the Art + group might make installation using visual arts and sound.

Seminars
We have a few seminars related to the subject areas of the school and towards the general aims of the college. The whole school has a regular meeting place, called “skolens time”, where we discuss issues relevant for our life in the school.
Tours
As a student at Sunnhordland folk high school, you will join us at tours both locally and abroad.
