Zhubei's very first school.
Liujia Elementary was approved in December 1906 and opened in August 1907 as "Lucchang Public School," making it the oldest school in what is now Zhubei City. Its original campus was destroyed by flooding in 1917 and had to be relocated. The school was renamed multiple times through the decades, finally reaching its current administrative name in 1988 — the same year Zhubei changed from a rural township to city status.
六家國小於1906年12月奉准設立，1907年8月以「六張犁公學校」之名開校，是今日竹北市歷史最悠久的學校。原始校舍於1917年因水患損毀，被迫遷校。學校歷經多次更名，直到1988年才確立現今校名——恰與竹北由鄉改制為市的同一年。
