Pyongyang, February 23 (KCNA) -- President Kim Il Sung issued a directive of the premier of the Cabinet of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea on establishing a children's palace on February 23, Juche 39 (1950). Since then at least 210 excellent schoolchildren's palaces, halls and camps have been built in scenic places of the country for seven decades.
The President saw to it that a children's palace was built with precious fund patriotic traders and industrialists presented to him though the country was hard pressed for everything after the liberation, and designated the site for the palace on Jangdaeje Hill in the center of the capital and issued a directive of the Cabinet premier on establishing a children's palace.
The Pyongyang Schoolchildren's Palace, which was completed in September Juche 52 (1963), is a comprehensive school for educating knowledge, morality and strong physique and a center for extracurricular education for sons and daughters of the working people. It has about 200 group rooms and more than 500 rooms, a 1 100-seat theatre, outdoor practice ground, gymnasium and library.
The President made sure that schoolchildren's palaces, halls and camps were massively built in scenic places of provinces, cities and counties with the Pyongyang Schoolchildren's Palace as a model.
Chairman Kim Jong Il, true to the noble intention of the President, saw to it that the Mangyongdae Schoolchildren's Palace, 250-mile Journey for National Liberation Schoolchildren's Palace, Kim Song Ju Schoolchildren's Palace, Samjiyon Schoolchildren's Palace, Chongjin Schoolchildren's Palace and other extracurricular education bases were built one after another.
In May 2013, Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un gave valuable instructions on remodeling all the schoolchildren's palaces and halls in the country as required by the new century.
Schoolchildren's palaces, halls and camps in all parts of the country have been more excellently remodeled as extracurricular education bases training younger generations into able talents thanks to the noble intention of the Workers' Party of Korea. -0-
