Jinhu Elementary School

Jinhu Elementary traces back to two predecessor schools, Taiwu Elementary and Huqian Elementary, both founded in 1951. They merged and were renamed "Kinmen County Jinhu Central Public School" in 1956, then "Jinhu Public School" in 1966. The school was built under the direction of Kinmen Defense Commander General Hu Lien, who required every village to have a school, with local resident Yin Dianjia credited with helping build it. A new NT$270 million campus of five buildings — including one shaped like a "sky lantern" — was completed for the school's 68th anniversary.

金湖國小的前身為太武小學與湖前小學，兩校均創立於民國40年（1951年）。民國45年（1956年）合併並更名為「金門縣金湖中心國民學校」，民國55年（1966年）再更名為「金湖國民學校」。學校的興建是金門防衛司令官胡璉將軍「村村有校」政策下的產物，地方居民尹殿甲對建校貢獻良多。近年斥資新台幣2.7億元興建的五棟新校舍，其中一棟造型宛如「天燈」，為建校68週年落成啟用。
