Over a century of continuous history.
Dafeng Elementary traces its founding to 1898, making it one of the oldest schools in Xindian and a direct link to the district's earliest modern schooling under Japanese colonial rule — predating the founding of the Republic of China itself by more than a decade. Now with over 120 years of continuous history, the school sits in the Dafeng Li neighborhood and remains a steady institution through more than a century of political and social change in Taiwan.
