Eight decades on Yunlin's flood-prone coast.
Xialun Elementary was founded on April 1, 1938, as the "Kouhu National School Xialun Branch," becoming an independent school on April 1, 1943. In 2018, the school celebrated its 80th anniversary with a lively student-performance street procession through the community. Over its long history, the school has weathered the coastal region's turbulent natural history, including the devastating floods that have periodically struck Kouhu Township.
