On the morning of the 20th, Oh Seung-rok, Mayor of Nowon-gu, attended the '2023 Nowon-gu Daycare Center Federation One Heart Sports Festival' held at the Korea Military Academy soccer field.

The One Heart Sports Festival was organized as an opportunity for daycare infants and toddlers, along with their parents and childcare teachers, to contribute to the holistic development of young children and to broaden mutual understanding between teachers and parents through the event.

Hosted by the Nowon-gu public, private, and home daycare center federation, this sports festival involved a total of 67 local centers: 36 public, 11 private, and 20 home daycare centers. The event was attended by Mayor Oh Seung-rok, city and district council members and guests, daycare infants and toddlers, parents, and teachers, totaling about 2,800 participants.

The opening ceremony proceeded with the introduction of guests, children’s and parents’ pledges, torch relay, declaration of opening, and warm-up exercises, followed by programs where children and parents participated together.

The sports festival was divided into two teams. On the soccer field, children enjoyed various physical activities they like, such as rolling a large ball, relay through hoops, eating snacks, running, throwing color bombs, basket ball toss, balloon tower stacking, and more. The other team spent time walking through Hwarangdae Cultural Park and the Light Garden.

Oh Seung-rok, Mayor of Nowon-gu, said, “Through this One Heart festival, I hope moms, dads, and friends enjoy running around the playground happily,” and added, “We will continue to strive to create an environment where children in Nowon-gu can grow up joyfully and safely.”
