The history of the school dates back to September 1957, when it commenced its operations in two study buildings: the former school building on Kesk Street and the one on Salme Street. Under the esteemed leadership of Vello Saage from 1959 to 1977, the school published its first almanac, TIPA-TAPA, which became a hallmark of the institution. Over the years, Vello Saage oversaw various literary classes, school theatres, and speech choirs, enriching students' experiences with literature days and trips. In 1967, the introduction of student photography, spearheaded by physics teacher Vello Punning, marked a significant milestone until 1997. The school's curriculum expanded over time, encompassing Finnish language classes and collaboration with institutions like the Finnish Institute and Embassy. Noteworthy initiatives include the Vello Saage poetry competition, the Friendship Schools in Europe programme with Forssa Gymnasium, and the introduction of a re-creation management training course in 2005. Subsequent years witnessed the incorporation of literature and media and nature studies, alongside Spanish as a fourth foreign language. The school's commitment to research culminated in the publication of students' research works in 2012. Transitioning into Tartu Forselius School in 2013, the institution underwent transformative leadership under Jüri Sasi and Kristi Mumm, ushering in innovative educational models like the "Ahhaalik" school in collaboration with AHHAA Science Centre and the University of Tartu.

Ths school’s objevives are:
nature and environmental training of children, young people and adults.
offering possibilities for nature and environmental hobbies.
