Gimpo City Successfully Concludes Childcare Workers Conference... Fostering Unity and Renewal Among Childcare Staff

Over 600 Childcare Staff Gather for Unity and Renewal
Diverse Programs Held, Including Awards for Exemplary Staff and the "Golden Bell" Challenge

Gimpo City in Gyeonggi Province (Mayor Kim Byungsoo) and the Gimpo City Childcare Center Association (President Lee Namjoo) successfully held the '2025 Gimpo City Childcare Workers Conference' at Gimpo Citizens Hall on the 21st, with over 600 childcare staff in attendance.

This event was organized to encourage the hard work of childcare staff, foster communication and unity among childcare professionals, and provide an opportunity for them to recharge. It aimed to enhance the pride of childcare workers and, ultimately, to improve the quality of childcare services.

The program featured a variety of activities, starting with a pre-ceremony event, followed by the awarding of exemplary childcare staff, the 'Gimpo City Childcare Workers Challenge! Golden Bell,' and a celebratory performance.

In particular, the 'Gimpo City Childcare Workers Challenge! Golden Bell' was well received as it allowed participants to laugh and learn together through a range of questions on childcare policies, city administration, and general knowledge. In addition, a plaque of appreciation for the development of childcare was presented to Mayor Kim Byungsoo, creating a warm atmosphere.

President Lee Namjoo, who hosted the event, stated, "I hope this conference will be remembered as a meaningful occasion where childcare staff, who have dedicated themselves to the happiness of children, can encourage and comfort one another, and recharge their hearts and passion."

Mayor Kim Byungsoo said, "Last year's conference was enlivened by the creative idea of a masked singing contest, and this year, you have once again brought new changes through the Golden Bell challenge. Such challenges and creative planning are a driving force that makes the childcare field a more vibrant place, and at the center of it all are the childcare staff who always do their best in their roles. The city will do its utmost to help lighten the burden of your hard work and dedication on the front lines."
