[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Dong-wook] The Gyeongsangbuk-do Office of Education announced on the 18th that Cheongdo Punggak Elementary School and Gumi Indong Middle School were selected as the top clubs in the school meal club contest held from October 28 to November 6.

This contest was conducted targeting schools operating student school meal clubs, teacher club teams, and schools running the Jangdokdae project, a special project of the Gyeongbuk Office of Education.

The top student clubs selected were Cheongdo Punggak Elementary School's "Nyamnyam! Duremeokgi" and Gumi Indong Middle School's "Playing, Thinking, and Learning." The teacher club "Home Recipe Development" won the top prize.

The student meal club "Nyamnyam! Duremeokgi" at Cheongdo Punggak Elementary School was mainly composed of six multicultural sixth-grade students. They carefully planned and steadily carried out various activities over a year, focusing on experiential activities that go beyond textbook-centered learning, such as making various healthy snacks and foods from around the world by seeing, hearing, and feeling directly.

The student meal club "Playing, Thinking, and Learning" at Gumi Indong Middle School consists of 13 first-year students and is conducted as a free semester club class during the 7th period every Monday. It was evaluated as having nurtured students' creativity, imagination, sensitivity, stories, dreams, and love by integrating dietary life and artistic activities to discover and cultivate the inner qualities of the students, giving wings to their imagination and sensitivity.

The teacher club "Home Recipe," which won the top prize, is composed of nutrition teachers working in elementary and middle schools. They developed nutrition education materials and promoted online nutrition education learning content to students exhausted by COVID-19, actively working to help form healthy eating habits among students.

Lee Seong-hee, Director of the Physical Education and Health Division at the Gyeongbuk Office of Education, said, "I hope that through this contest, excellent cases of school meals will be discovered and spread to help students form healthy eating habits."
