Seongbuk-gu Woori Neighborhood Care Center Branch 12 Opens in Gireum-dong

Seongbuk-gu, Seoul (Mayor Lee Seung-ro) has opened the Our Neighborhood Care Center Seongbuk Branch No. 12 on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the Sori Village Center in Gireum-dong.

Located in Gireum 1-dong, Branch No. 12 covers a total floor area of 196㎡ (59 pyeong). This area has the highest number of children in Seongbuk-gu, and it is expected to help meet the demand for elementary school after-school care.

During the school term, customized care services are provided for all elementary school students in need of care from 1 PM to 7 PM after school, and during vacations, from 9 AM to 6 PM.

Currently, Seongbuk-gu operates a total of 12 Our Neighborhood Care Centers, including integrated types, and with the municipal base-type care center, a total of 13 centers are operated within the district.

To establish Branch No. 12, Seongbuk-gu selected the vacant space within the Sori Village Center through the Seoul City space confirmation review in March, and has devoted nearly a year to design, remodeling, and selecting the entrusted institution. The opening ceremony was held on the 20th.

Lee Seung-ro, Mayor of Seongbuk-gu, said, “As a child-friendly city, Seongbuk-gu aims to operate one care center per neighborhood by 2026 and will continue to expand the care centers.”
