Kindergarten Meal Consultant Trainees Practice at Busan Kindergarten

On the 9th at 10 a.m., a field training session for 73 trainees of the Ministry of Education-led ‘National Kindergarten Meal Consultant Training Course’ will be held at the Busan Nutrition Education Experience Center and private kindergartens in the district.

The trainees participating in this field training are itinerant nutrition teachers assigned to metropolitan and provincial offices of education to support meal management at small-scale private kindergartens, in accordance with the revised School Meal Act of June 2022.

Five nutrition teachers supporting meal management at small-scale private kindergartens from five educational support offices in the Busan area will lead the trainees.

The trainees will be divided into 10 groups for the field training. Each group will visit target kindergartens to observe nutrition education sites, meal distribution, hygiene education, and operational consulting.

Additionally, they will attend lectures at the Busan Nutrition Education Experience Center, including an excellent case study on the operation of itinerant nutrition teachers at private kindergartens by Bae Jeom-hee, a nutrition teacher from the Busan Northern Educational Support Office, and a lecture titled ‘Understanding the Operation of Itinerant Nutrition Teachers at the Office of Education’ by Song Jin-seon, a supervisor from the Character, Physical Education, and Meal Division of the City Office of Education.
