Luzhu's largest elementary school.
Guangming Elementary began as a branch of Jinxing Elementary set up in 1997, opened to students in 1998, and became independent as Guangming Elementary in 1999. It has grown dramatically since, from an initial 26 classes and 944 students to 68 classes and 1,805 students by 2023, with 157 staff — making it the largest school in Luzhu District today. The school runs a South Nankan Creek place-based curriculum with six units, from green-life mapping to a mini-marathon, that uses the waterway running past the school as a teaching resource.
光明國小於民國86年(1997年)以錦興國小分校形式設立,民國87年(1998年)開始招生,民國88年(1999年)獨立設校。此後成長迅速,從最初26班、944名學生,成長至民國112年(2023年)的68班、1,805名學生、教職員157人,是目前蘆竹區規模最大的學校。學校發展出以流經校園的南崁溪為核心的六大主題特色課程,涵蓋綠色生活地圖繪製、迷你馬拉松、「小溪的故事」等單元。

👩🏫 A Large Teaching Staff
龐大師資陣容
Supported by 157 staff members serving nearly 1,800 students, reflecting the scale of Nankan's continued residential growth.
Learning shaped by the South Nankan Creek.
Guangming Elementary's signature curriculum is literally built around the South Nankan Creek (南崁溪), the waterway that threads through Luzhu District before reaching the approach zone of Taoyuan International Airport. By tying environmental education directly to this defining local waterway, the school connects its students to the geography that has shaped Luzhu's growth from farmland to airport-adjacent suburb. See the Taoyuan county page for more on the region.
