From a branch school to an independent seaside campus.
Shanshui Elementary began in August 1958 as Wude Elementary's Suogang branch school, before becoming fully independent as Shanshui National Elementary in 1967. It took its current Chinese name in 1968, and was updated again in 1981 to reflect Magong Township's promotion to city status. Today the school serves the children of Shanshui Village, a coastal community on Penghu's south shore.
山水國小於民國47年（1958年）8月，最初以五德國小鎖港分校的形式成立，於民國56年（1967年）獨立設校，稱山水國民學校。民國57年（1968年）定名為現名，並於民國70年（1981年）馬公鎮升格為市後再次調整校名。如今學校服務澎湖南岸山水村的學童。
