Learning at the edge of the sea.
Kenting Elementary School sits on or near the grounds of Taiwan's most famous tourist beach resort area, Kenting, and is sometimes cited as the southernmost elementary school on Taiwan's main island. Its own branding sums up its identity: "幸福小學在墾丁" ("A Happy Elementary School in Kenting"). The school leans into its coastal setting through marine education programs that treat the entire Hengchun Peninsula as an extended outdoor classroom — work that has drawn coverage from Common Wealth Magazine's "Smile Taiwan" travel-education series. The school also operates a branch campus, the Eluanbi Branch (鵝鑾分校).
墾丁國小座落於台灣最知名的海濱度假勝地墾丁，有時被稱為台灣本島最南端的國小。校方的自我定位是「幸福小學在墾丁」。學校善用濱海環境，推動以整個恆春半島為戶外教室的海洋教育課程，曾獲《天下雜誌》「微笑台灣」旅行教育專題報導。學校並設有鵝鑾分校。

At the doorstep of Kenting National Park.
Kenting Elementary sits right at the doorstep of Kenting National Park, Taiwan's best-known beach and marine-tourism destination, drawing visitors from across the island and abroad. That coastal, tourism-driven setting shapes the school directly — its marine-education curriculum turns the surrounding reefs, beaches, and peninsula landscape into daily lessons, tying the classroom to the same waters that make Hengchun the gateway to southern Taiwan's most famous national park. See the Pingtung county page for more on the region.
