A century-old school that changed townships.
Zhuhu Elementary School opened in 1922 as a branch classroom of Hunei Township's First Public School (湖內鄉第一公學校竹滬分教場), becoming fully independent in 1944 as Hunei Township Zhuhu National School. In 1950, administrative boundaries shifted and the school was transferred from Hunei to Lujhu Township, where it remains today. A 2019 Central News Agency (CNA) feature highlighted how this century-old school has reinvented itself by weaving local history into its curriculum and identity.
竹滬國小創立於1922年，最初為「湖內鄉第一公學校竹滬分教場」，1944年獨立設校，改稱「湖內鄉竹滬國民學校」。1950年因行政區劃調整，學校自湖內鄉改隸路竹鄉，並延續至今。2019年中央社（CNA）一篇報導特別介紹這所百年老校如何結合在地文史，重新形塑學校特色與定位。
