The different classes cooperate a lot and preschool education is involved in the activities of the 1st-2nd grades, which lowers the threshold for entering school. The school has active student union and godparent activities, e.g. the older ones help the younger ones put on skates or read aloud to them.

The whole village is also actively involved in the school's activities, and the parent and student committee are active and organize a lot of things to do, trips and camp schools. At Hietama school, people are encouraged to participate in many kinds of activities, competitions and tournaments. Regular visits are made to the library, swimming pool, art museum or Huuha park. You can also go on an ecological cycling trip!

Our school is a neighborhood school in the villages of Hietama and Parantala, and thanks to the large gymnasium, it is an important place for exercising even in the evenings and on weekends. The school yard is a comfortably equipped playground, for which we received new equipment in the summer of 2017. In the spring of 2018, a frisbee golf course was completed next to the school. There is also a playground in the yard. In the immediate vicinity of the school, there is a two-kilometer-long lighted piste, which is used as a ski slope in winter.
