What makes this school worth knowing.
🧭 Near Taiwan's Southernmost Point
鄰近台灣最南端
The school's location near Taiwan's southernmost tip gives its students a genuinely unique geographic claim among the island's elementary schools.
🌊 Sea on Three Sides
三面環海
Bordered by the Pacific Ocean, the Bashi Channel, and the Taiwan Strait, the school sits in one of the most dramatically coastal settings in Taiwan.
⛰️ Ringed by Named Mountains
群山環繞
Laofo Mountain, Lide Mountain, and Harbor Mountain surround the school's district, framing a landscape of both sea and summit.
Where the hawks fly and the old songs echo.
Yonggang Elementary sits in Manzhou Township near Taiwan's southern tip, right along the flyway watched each autumn as thousands of gray-faced buzzard hawks (灰面鵟鷹) pass overhead on their annual migration south. The area also falls within the cultural region credited as the birthplace of "思想起" (Thinking Of), the classic Hengchun-Manzhou folk ballad sung to moon-guitar accompaniment — heritage that surrounds this small coastal-and-mountain school on every side. See the Pingtung county page for more on the region.
