Sophie Mannerheim School (

Taka-Töölö district in Helsinki, Finland. The school has grades 1–9, and it has the special mission of hospital teaching to teach elementary school-aged children who are hospitalized at HYKS.[2] The school is named after Sophie Mannerheim (1863–1928), a baroness nurse who founded the Children's Castle, among other things.[2]

As of 2019[update], the school operates in mobile modular buildings in front of the HYKS Psychiatry Center [fi].[2] In addition, the school has branch office on the Stenbäckinkatu street near the New Children's Hospital [fi].[3] As of 2023 planning is ongoing for a move of the school to Laakso, where a new hospital is expected to house a children's ward starting from 2028.[4][5]
