A long road from branch classroom to independent school.
Wen-Ao Elementary's history traces back to a 1951 branch classroom of Shiquan Elementary, which was discontinued and revived more than once over the following decades. It finally became a fully independent school in August 1997, when a new campus was built on a two-hectare site in Xiwen Village, opening with 8 classes and 194 students. Today it serves the children of this village on the outskirts of Magong City.
文澳國小的歷史可追溯至民國40年（1951年）石泉國小設立的分班，其後歷經數次停辦與復辦。直到民國86年（1997年）8月，才在西文里一塊兩公頃的土地上興建新校舍，正式獨立設校，創校初期有8班194名學生。如今學校持續服務馬公市郊西文里的學童。
