Built on reclaimed pond land for a growing community.
Wen-Shan Elementary was established July 1, 1981 as a branch of Zhongshan Elementary, becoming independent the following month. The campus was built on land that had been a water-conservancy retention pond ("溜池") — the government funded both this school and the adjacent Zhongxing Junior High simultaneously to serve the growing community. Designated a Music Education specialty school, it sits on Wenzhong Road next to Zhongxing Junior High, near the Taiwan No. 1 provincial highway and the freeway interchange connecting South Taoyuan.
文山國小於民國70年(1981年)7月1日設立為中山國小分校,次月獨立設校。校地前身為水利溜池,政府當時同時興建本校與鄰近的中興國中,以因應社區成長需求。學校獲指定為音樂教育特色學校,校址位於文中路,緊鄰中興國中,鄰近台1線省道及銜接南桃園的交流道。

From irrigation pond to school campus.
Wen-Shan Elementary's origin on reclaimed irrigation-pond land is a direct trace of Taoyuan District's agricultural past being converted into urban educational infrastructure as the city grew outward from its historic core in the 1980s. See the Taoyuan county page for more on the region.
