Gwangju Seo-gu 'Hwangyeong-a Nolja' Summer Semester Special Lecture Resumes

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (Mayor Seo Daeseok) announced on the 7th that it will resume the experiential eco-program "Let's Play Environment" summer semester special lecture, which was temporarily postponed due to the impact of COVID-19, as social distancing has been lowered to Level 1.

Seo-gu's eco-program "Let's Play Environment," which has been in operation since 2016, is an experiential program designed to help children personally feel the environment and develop adaptability to the changing climate.

This year's program is scheduled to be held a total of six times: twice in August, twice in October, and twice in November, with professional instructors from environmental organizations such as Gwangju Life Forest and Gwangju Jeonnam Green Alliance invited to lead the sessions.

The summer semester special lectures will be held at the Children's Ecology Learning Library in Pungam-dong, Seo-gu, in two sessions: the first session (August 13?14 and 22?23, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.) and the second session (August 13?14 and 22?23, 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.).

The summer semester special lectures are mainly composed of hands-on activities in which children participate directly, such as healthy foods that consider the Earth, making paper mulberry kites, and sending their dreams on pressed flowers.

The tuition is free, and registration will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis from August 8 to 12 for elementary school students in grades 1 to 3 through the Seo-gu Integrated Library website.

A Seo-gu official said, "We plan to operate the program again in October and November after this summer special lecture," adding, "We hope that through the program, children will have time to personally feel, experience, and think once more about the environment."
