About · 學校簡介

Over a century as a mother school.

Xingren Elementary School opened on March 31, 1916, during the Japanese colonial era, as the "Xinghuadian Branch" of Tamsui Public School — making it more than a century old. Over the decades, Xingren operated its own branch campuses that later became independent schools in their own right: Tunshan Elementary School in 1952 and Zhongshan (忠山) Experimental Elementary School in 1957, making Xingren a "mother school" for several of Tamsui's rural hill-country schools.

興仁國小創校於日治時期1916年3月31日,初名淡水公學校「興化店分校」,至今已逾百年校史。歷年來,興仁國小陸續設立多所分校,後皆獨立設校——包括1952年獨立的屯山國小,以及1957年獨立的忠山實驗小學,使興仁國小成為淡水多所山區小校的「母校」。

🏘️

The place-name "Xinghuadian" behind Xingren's original name traces to an early Hoklo settler community from Xinghua, Fujian, one of the inland farming settlements that predate Tamsui's growth into a major port town. See the New Taipei county page for more on the region.
