Ringed by mountains, rich in food education.
Tongtou Elementary sits at the end of Qingshui Creek's watershed, surrounded on three sides by mountains — one of the more dramatically situated schools in Zhushan Township. The school has developed a "Hands-On Discovery School" (探索體驗學校) experiential-education program alongside a "Tea & Coffee Aroma" (茶香咖啡香) food-and-farming curriculum, tying classroom learning directly to the tea and coffee cultivation traditions of the surrounding hillside terrain.
桶頭國小座落於清水溪流域源頭,三面環山,是竹山鎮地勢最為壯闊的學校之一。學校發展出「探索體驗學校」體驗教育課程,並推出「茶香咖啡香」食農教育方案,將課堂學習與周邊山區的製茶與咖啡種植傳統緊密結合。
