About · 學校簡介

A justice-named school with a stage tradition.

Zhengyi Elementary School's founding date is recorded inconsistently across sources — one account cites administrative approval in 1989, while the school's own history page states formal establishment in August 1992, and a first graduating class is noted as early as 1983. Rather than force a single date, this page notes the discrepancy honestly. What is clear is the school's long-running traditional puppet-theater (布袋戲) troupe, founded in 1984, which toured Japan in 1991 — a striking achievement for an elementary school program — alongside an attached kindergarten that has operated since 1984.

正義國小的創校年份在不同資料來源中並不一致——一份資料指出核准設校於1989年,學校本身的沿革頁面則記載正式設校於1992年8月,另有紀錄顯示首屆畢業生早在1983年便已畢業。本頁誠實呈現這項出入,不強行統一年份。可以確定的是,學校自1984年成立傳統布袋戲團,並於1991年遠赴日本演出——對一所國小社團而言相當難得的成就,此外附設幼兒園亦自1984年起營運至今。

🎭 A Puppet Theater Since 1984

⚖️ A Virtue-Based Name

校名取自「正義」

Unlike many Fengshan schools tied to place names, Zhengyi ("justice") reflects the values-based school-naming tradition common in mid-20th-century Taiwan.

A stage for traditional puppet theater.

🎭

Zhengyi's traditional 布袋戲 (glove-puppet theater) troupe connects students to one of Taiwan's most distinctive folk-art forms, and its 1991 tour of Japan brought that tradition to an international audience. See the Kaohsiung county page for more on the region.
