Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education Holds "Character-Building Meal with Families" કાર્યક્રમ

The Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education held its “2026 Character-Building Meal with Families” program at Dasan Hangang Kindergarten in Namyangju on October 17, under the theme “A Meal of Respect, a Table of Consideration.”

The event combined hands-on activities with a live YouTube broadcast, enabling members of the Gyeonggi education community to participate and communicate online as well.

“Character-Building Meals with Families” is part of a school-meal-linked educational program that runs from kindergarten through high school. It was designed to help families experience the values of respect and consideration by preparing and sharing food together, and to carry the character education students receive at school into their daily lives at home.

The program included cooking activities and a character-building talk, as well as live comment discussions, quizzes, and opportunities for families to share their activities. The online broadcast also allowed families unable to attend in person to communicate in real time and join the event.

Participating families made “Our Family’s Happy-Heart Ssam” using vegetables with different colors and nutritional benefits, reflecting on the importance of respecting differences and working together. They also learned about the five tastes and characteristics of Omija and made “Omija Punch for Good Health,” a traditional drink, sharing consideration and gratitude with one another.

After the cooking activities, the families ate the dishes they had prepared together, expressed their gratitude to one another, and shared their thoughts on the experience.

Baek Seongyeol, director of the School Meals and Health Division at the Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education, said, “School meals are an important educational activity through which students learn and practice respect and consideration in their daily lives. We will continue to support educational activities so that the character values students experience through school meals carry over into their homes.”
