About · 學校簡介

A name chosen to bless two hamlets' flourishing.

Dawun Elementary began on October 28, 1948, as a single-classroom branch, "大寮分離課室," of Qigu Elementary. It became a formal branch in 1966 and gained full independence in August 1970 as "臺南縣七股鄉大文國民小學." Its name, combining the hamlets of Daliao and Dazheng that it serves, was chosen by local villager Ma Chunchang to mean "may Daliao and Dazheng's culture flourish." The school grounds were donated by the village temple, Long'an Temple — a common pattern for rural Taiwanese schools built on temple-donated land.

大文國小創校於民國37年(1948年)10月28日,最初為七股國小的單班分教室「大寮分離課室」。民國55年(1966年)9月升格為正式分校,民國59年(1970年)8月獨立設校,定名「臺南縣七股鄉大文國民小學」。校名結合大寮、大埕兩聚落,由地方仕紳馬春長命名,寓意「願大寮、大埕文風昌盛」。校地由當地廟宇龍安宮捐贈——這是台灣許多偏鄉學校建校於廟地的常見模式。

🏮 Built on Temple-Donated Land

校地由廟宇捐贈

Dawun's campus grounds were donated by the village's Long'an Temple, reflecting the close temple-and-village social fabric common to rural Taiwanese schools.

✍️ A Name That Blesses Two Hamlets

祝福兩聚落的校名

Local villager Ma Chunchang combined the names of the Daliao and Dazheng hamlets to coin "大文," meaning "may their culture flourish" — a name chosen specifically to bless both founding communities.

🏫 From One Classroom to a Full School

從單班教室到獨立學校

The school grew from a single-classroom branch of Qigu Elementary in 1948 into a fully independent school by 1970, mirroring the postwar growth of Qigu's small farming and aquaculture hamlets.
