About · 學校簡介

A school founded inside a legendary temple.

Xiangong Elementary began in September 1952 as a branch class of Zhenhai National School, initially holding classes in the side rooms of Lu'ermen Tianhou Temple (鹿耳門天后宮). It became fully independent as "Xiangong National School" in August 1956 under founding principal Ye Zhi-xiong. The first classrooms — three bamboo huts — were built directly on temple grounds in 1953, with permanent buildings following in 1955. By 1972, the temple's increasing ritual activity prompted a relocation; the Taiwan Alkali Company donated former dormitory and sports-field land for a new campus, which opened in 1980.

顯宮國小於1952年(民國41年)9月以鎮海國校分班形式創立,最初借用鹿耳門天后宮廂房上課。1956年(民國45年)8月由創校校長葉志雄獨立設校,定名「顯宮國民學校」。最初的三間竹造教室於1953年建於廟埕內,1955年才興建永久校舍。1972年因廟方祭典活動漸增、影響上課,遂規劃遷校;臺鹼公司捐贈原宿舍與運動場用地,新校舍於1980年落成啟用。
