[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] Yangju City, Gyeonggi Province, announced on the 17th that it has granted free use permission to the Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education for the site of the (tentative name) Gyeonggi Northern Early Childhood Experience Education Center.

With this, Yangju City has completed the preliminary site preparation procedures for the establishment of the Early Childhood Experience Education Center through the lifting of agricultural promotion area designation last year, the announcement of urban management plan (district unit) decision (change), and the free use permission for the project site.

According to this measure, the Provincial Office of Education can use the project site located at Gwangsa-dong 813, 814, and 816, totaling 11,658.7㎡, free of charge with renewal every five years for the construction and operation of the Early Childhood Experience Education Center.

With a total project cost of approximately 25.2 billion KRW, the center will be built on a site area of 11,658.7㎡ with a total building area of 5,733㎡, consisting of three above-ground floors, and will serve as an experiential education facility for children aged 3 to 5. It is scheduled to open in the second half of next year.

The Early Childhood Experience Education Center is an indoor-outdoor connected building composed of eight experiential areas reflecting early childhood play philosophy, allowing connection and expansion of play activities between areas.

Following the free use permission of the site, the city plans to proceed with subsequent procedures related to the opening, including construction commencement, legal adjustments, and personnel allocation.

A city official stated, "With the completion of the site preparation procedures for the Early Childhood Experience Education Center, we expect the remaining construction procedures to accelerate," and added, "We will ensure that the creation of an educational environment supporting the physical and mental growth and development of young children in the northern Gyeonggi region proceeds without any setbacks."
