The root school of Annan District.
Anshun Elementary was established on April 1, 1916, as "Anshun Public School" (安順公學校), taking its name from "Anshun Zhuang," the old administrative name for the area before it became Annan District. Its original campus stood at the southern end of Zongtou Village before relocating to its current site in December 1938. Over the decades it spun off Heshun, Haidong, and Chang'an Elementary Schools as branch and successor institutions, making it the root school of Annan District's entire public education system.
安順國小創立於1916年（大正5年）4月1日，初名「安順公學校」，校名源自「安順莊」——安南區在成為現名前的舊行政區名稱。原校址位於總頭寮南端，1938年12月遷至現址。數十年來，學校陸續分出和順、海東、長安等國小作為分校或後繼機構，成為整個安南區公立教育體系的根源學校。

逾百年校史

The institutional root of Annan's schools.
As the oldest and "mother" school of the district — founded in 1916 under the area's original name "Anshun" — this school's century-plus history is essentially the institutional backbone from which most of Annan's other elementary schools eventually grew. See the Tainan county page for more on the region.
