Over a century of schooling in Wujia.
Wujia Elementary's history stretches back to 1921 (大正10年), when it opened during the Japanese colonial era as a branch of Fongshan Public School. It was formally established as its own institution, Wujia Public School, in 1924. Over a century old, it is by far the oldest school in this batch, its history spanning the Qing, Japanese colonial, and Republic of China eras alongside Wujia's long agricultural community life.
