About · 學校簡介

The Dream Academy at the Foot of Mt. Qilai.

Tongmen Elementary was founded in 1916 under Japanese colonial rule as "霧克母岳乙種蕃童教育所," making it one of the oldest schools in Xiulin Township at over a century old. The campus sits at the foot of Mt. Qilai and is branded "奇萊山下的夢想學園" (Dream Academy at the Foot of Mt. Qilai). Two 100-year-old camphor trees and a grove of pines still stand on the grounds — living witnesses to the school's long history — and students have built a strong record in Truku-language recitation competitions.

銅門國小創立於1916年日治時期,最初名為「霧克母岳乙種蕃童教育所」,是秀林鄉歷史最悠久的學校之一,建校已超過百年。校園座落於奇萊山腳下,自我品牌為「奇萊山下的夢想學園」。校內兩棵百年老樟樹與一片松林至今依然屹立,見證著學校的悠久歷史,學生也在太魯閣族語朗讀比賽中屢創佳績。
