About Us
Our school was founded in the first year of Taisho era (1912) during the Japanese colonial period, and it has a history of over a hundred years. Our school is located in Daine District, Tainan City, bordered by Liujia District to the north, Guantian District and Shanhua District to the west, Shanshang District to the south, and intersecting with Yujing District and Nanxi District at the Wu Mountain Range to the east. The winding Zengwen River flows through this area, marking the boundary between the mountainous region and the Chianan Plain. The area is surrounded by mountains and was once the relocation site of the four major indigenous tribes, including the Dawu Community, Xilaya Community, and Jiaoba Community. Later, the Pingpu people of the four major tribes moved here, and the Han people began to develop the area during the Kangxi era of the Qing Dynasty. Many traditional customs and cultural relics have been preserved in the area, such as the Dawulong Public Office, Yang Family Ancestral House, and Daine Shrine. In terms of geography and resources, the area presents a different landscape with changing seasons. The white chalk terrain, winding Zengwen River, and pot-shaped cave formations are stunning. The local agricultural production and landscape changes are closely related, producing various fruits and earning the area a reputation as the "Sweetness Township" in the past.
As a small and remote school in the center of the Dainei district, the local economy is mostly agricultural, with a large proportion of the population engaged in farming. Due to limited job opportunities, most young adults seek employment or settle elsewhere, resulting in a higher proportion of elderly residents. As a result, knowledge acquisition, as well as the development of concepts and abilities, plays an important role in the growth process of students, and the school education is relied upon and trusted by parents to a higher degree. Therefore, even with limited resources, the school demonstrates great vitality and innovation, develops a school-based curriculum, improves teaching environment and equipment, actively seeks external resources, provides quality education, and cultivates excellent students with diverse abilities and highlights! Approximately 40% of the students come from disadvantaged families.
