A village school at the gateway to Yushan.
Zhuole Elementary was reportedly founded around August 1969 and now carries half a century of history in the Bunun settlement of Takluk, on the north bank of the Laonong (Lakulaku) River. It is one of the smallest schools in Zhuoxi Township, with roughly six classes and about 32 students, yet its location gives it an unusually striking backdrop: the entrance to Yushan National Park.
卓樂國小約創立於民國58年（1969年）8月，至今已有近半世紀的歷史，座落於拉庫拉庫溪（荖濃溪）北岸的布農族塔庫魯部落。學校規模在卓溪鄉屬於最小之一，僅約6班、32名學生，但地理位置格外醒目——就在玉山國家公園的入口處。

👨👩👧 A Half-Century, Small-School Story
近半世紀的迷你小學
With roughly 32 students across six classes, Zhuole represents the intimate scale typical of Zhuoxi's mountain schools, where every student is known by name.
Zhuoxi Township, a Bunun mountain home.
Zhuoxi Township is a remote, mountainous district of Hualien County bordering Yushan National Park, home to a majority Bunun Indigenous population. Its eight elementary schools — and no junior high — reflect villages small enough that most students continue their education elsewhere after sixth grade. See the Hualien schools page for the full township list.
