About · 學校簡介

A school that began in a village hall.

Xuedong Elementary was established in August 1967 as a branch class of Nanxing Elementary School, initially holding classes in a borrowed public building known as a "公厝" (village ancestral/public hall) — literally starting inside a community hall before any dedicated schoolhouse existed. It became a fully independent school in 1978. The school's origin as a single borrowed-hall branch class reflects the modest, dispersed hamlet settlement pattern of 1960s Annan District, a common pattern for several Annan elementary schools that started as branches of older "mother schools" before growing large enough to become independent.

學東國小於1967年(民國56年)8月,以南興國小分班形式創立,最初借用村落的「公厝」作為第一間教室,可說是名符其實從村落公共空間起步。1978年(民國67年)正式獨立設校。學東國小的起點——借用單一公厝空間的分班——反映出1960年代安南區聚落分散、規模不大的墾殖型態,也是安南多所國小共有的發展模式:先作為「母校」的分校,人口成長後才獨立設校。

What makes this school worth knowing.

🏠 Born Inside a Village Hall

創校於村落公厝

The school's first classroom was literally a borrowed village ancestral hall, before any dedicated schoolhouse was built.

🌱 A Branch That Grew Independent

由分校成長為獨立學校

Established in 1967 as a branch of Nanxing Elementary, the school became fully independent in 1978 as Annan's population grew.

🗺️ A Pattern Shared Across Annan

安南多校共有的發展模式

Xuedong's branch-to-independent path mirrors several other Annan elementary schools that grew out of older "mother schools" in the postwar decades.

A hamlet-era beginning.

🏠

Its origin as a single borrowed-hall branch class reflects the modest, dispersed hamlet settlement pattern of 1960s Annan District, before large-scale suburban development filled in the area's fish ponds and farmland. See the Tainan county page for more on the region.
