About · 學校簡介

A school remembered in oil paint.

Anding Junior High School began construction on April 22, 1968, and was officially established on August 1 that year as “Tainan County Anding Junior High School,” with Lai Conglin (賴聰林) as founding principal under the supervision of preparatory director Li Wenshui (李文水). The school is notable for displaying oil-painting portraits — not photographs — of all its former principals and PTA chairs along the principal's office walls, a distinctive, decades-old tradition that local media has singled out as unusual among Tainan schools. The current principal has reportedly continued the tradition without knowing which predecessor originated it.

安定國中於民國57年(1968年)4月22日動工,同年8月1日正式成立「台南縣立安定國民中學」,首任校長為賴聰林,籌備主任為李文水。學校特色之一,是校長室走廊懸掛歷任校長與家長會長的油畫肖像——而非一般常見的照片——這項行之有年的傳統,曾被地方媒體特別報導為台南校園中少見的作法。據報導,現任校長也延續此傳統,儘管已不確知這項慣例最初是由哪一任校長開始。

Amid the scallion fields of the Jianan Plain.

🧅

Anding District is Tainan's noted scallion / green-onion (青蔥) farming area on the flat Jianan Plain, and the junior high — like the rest of the district — sits amid that flat, intensively farmed onion-growing landscape. See the Tainan county page for more on the region.
