The Seoul Metropolitan Government's Disabled-Non-disabled Students 'Everyone's Sports Day' and the 2025 Seoul Forest Sports Day briefing session were completed.
Hosted by the Seoul Sports Council for the Disabled, Sports Chosun, and Weepic Co., Ltd., and sponsored by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the Korea Sports Council for the Disabled, and the Healthy Physical Activity Research Institute, the Seoul Forest Sports Festival is a sports event where disabled and non-disabled students run together. The Seoul Forest Sports Festival, which first began in 2022, is the fourth annual event this year and means 'Seoul + Oulim'each other + Oulim', which means that disabled and non-disabled students get along through sports and harmonize like a forest, breaking down barriers in their minds.
According to an official letter from the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, the selection of 24 middle and high schools (14 middle and 10 high schools) to participate in the 2024 Seoul Forest Sports Festival was completed earlier this month. Six schools, including Suseo Middle School, Jongam Middle School, Cheongun Middle School, Gyeonggi High School, Dongmyeong Girls' High School, and Seoul National University High School, also set records for participation in the first to fourth consecutive competitions. On the 17th, online briefing sessions for participating schools were held twice, and the participation of special teachers and physical education teachers from 24 schools was enthusiastic.
