From a 50-student branch to a green campus.
Taikang Elementary began on September 1, 1954, as "Liuying National School's Taikang Branch," a single-class school of just 50 students sited near the Taikang village communal shrine. It grew into a two-class branch the following year, became an independent school in 1959 as "Tainan County Liuying Township Taikang National School," and took its current elementary designation in 1968 when nine-year compulsory education was implemented nationwide. Today the school operates an attached kindergarten and has built a low-carbon, sustainability-themed school-based curriculum reflecting its rural setting.
太康國小創立於民國43年(1954年)9月1日,最初名為「柳營國民學校太康分班」,設於太康村公廟附近,僅一班50名學生。隔年(民國44年)升格為兩班分校,民國48年(1959年)獨立設校,定名為「臺南縣柳營鄉太康國民學校」,民國57年(1968年)九年國民義務教育實施後改為現名。學校現設有附設幼兒園,並發展出結合鄉村地景的低碳永續校本課程。

🏫 Born Beside a Village Shrine
創校於村廟旁
The school's original 1954 site, chosen near the Taikang village communal shrine, reflects how closely rural schools and community temples were once linked.
Liuying's dairy heartland.
Taikang village lies within Liuying's dairy belt, one of Taiwan's most concentrated cattle-farming zones, and the school's sustainability curriculum grew directly out of that agricultural setting. The dairy pastures that surround the campus are part of the same farming landscape that gives Liuying District its distinct identity across nearly every school in the area.
