Comprehensive collection of Hwaseong's education-related materials from late Joseon period to present day
Hwaseong City will open a special exhibition themed on 'Hwaseong's Modern and Contemporary Education' at the Hwaseong Local History Museum in Hyangnam-eup starting today (15th).
This special exhibition is designed to bring together schools within Hwaseong (including 10 closed schools) in one place, offering visitors an opportunity to examine the changes in Hwaseong's education from the late Joseon period to the present.
The main exhibition materials, organized into four sections with cooperation from elementary, middle, and high schools, include various records such as textbooks, report cards, certificates, albums, and graduation registers, as well as school bells, projectors, tape recorders, and military training rifles.
The first section, displaying school education during the Japanese colonial period, arranges schools established in Hwaseong at that time on a timeline and presents photographs and actual artifacts to enhance the sense of immediacy.
The second section recreates a classroom from the 1970s and 80s, allowing visitors to sit at old desks and view videos of classroom lessons, outdoor practice, picnics, athletic meets, and love-of-homeland activities.
The third section is themed on the establishment of middle and high schools in Hwaseong after liberation. Through large framed pictures depicting the construction of Namyang Middle and High School and commemorative banners honoring founders, as well as photographs of salt fields operated to raise operating funds, visitors will be able to feel the local community's affection and enthusiasm for schools.
The final fourth section concludes the exhibition by showcasing Hwaseong education's evolution into 'creative and intellectual education' in 2013, displaying the current state of Hwaseong's educational scene.
Everyone who has attended school holds cherished memories of their school days. This exhibition is drawing attention as a venue where parents and children, teachers and students can enjoy and share their experiences and communicate with one another on the themes of school and education.
The exhibition will be open for viewing at all times until January 25 next year, except on Mondays and January 1st. Admission is free. For inquiries and further details, please contact the Culture and Tourism Division's History Promotion Team at 031-369-6378.
