[Goheung=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Shim Jeong-woo] Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Song Gwi-geun) announced on the 8th that it held the 2021 Goheung-gun Childcare Staff Unity Festival with the participation of about 180 childcare staff from 20 daycare centers in the district.

This event was organized to boost the morale of childcare staff and promote harmony and unity. To prevent the spread of COVID-19, the schedule was simplified while adhering to quarantine rules, including ▲ awarding plaques of commendation to outstanding childcare staff ▲ accounting education ▲ hobby and experience program activities by each daycare center ▲ and a package sharing event.

At the commemorative event held on October 22 with about 40 childcare staff attending, plaques of commendation were awarded to 20 outstanding childcare staff, and accounting education was conducted. Hobby and experience program activities were promoted by each daycare center to relieve job stress and foster communication and harmony among childcare staff.

Additionally, from November 4 to 5, a two-day sharing event was held under the auspices of the Goheung-gun Daycare Center Association, where childcare staff directly prepared and delivered “Heartfelt Love Sharing Packages” to 240 preschool children from single-parent and multicultural families.

At the commemorative event, Song Gwi-geun, Governor of Goheung-gun, said, “The role of childcare staff is very important for children who spend more time at daycare centers than at home. I ask for much love and attention so that the young saplings of Goheung, the infants and toddlers, can grow up bright, upright, and happy.”

Kim Ki-hwan, Vice President of the Daycare Center Association, said, “We deeply appreciate Goheung-gun’s active interest and support for childcare development, and we will continue to do our best to create a childcare environment where both childcare staff and children are happy.”

Meanwhile, Goheung-gun is supporting new childcare projects in 2021, including ▲ monthly personnel expenses of 600,000 KRW for drivers of daycare centers with fewer than 39 people in township areas and private/home daycare centers ▲ annual cooling and heating expenses support of 800,000 KRW per facility ▲ and an additional 20% monthly personnel expense support of 585,000 KRW for lead teachers of preschool classes.
