<h1>About Our School</h1>
<p>A school that has been part of Penghu life since the nineteenth century — and is
still changing with every generation of children who walk through its gates.</p>

<h2>The oldest school on the islands</h2>
<p>
Magong Elementary School is a public elementary school in Magong City, the
administrative and cultural centre of Penghu County — an archipelago of some
ninety islands in the Taiwan Strait.
</p>
<p>
We are the first elementary school established in the county, and the source of
elementary education across the city. From the Japanese colonial period onward,
nine schools have been founded either directly or indirectly from our campus:
Wude, Shanshui, Shili, Shiquan, Xingren, Dongwei, Wenao, Fenggui, Hujing,
Tongpan, Zhongxing and Zhongzheng among them.
</p>
<p>
For that reason people in Penghu call us two things: <strong>the oldest
elementary school in Penghu County</strong>, and <strong>the mother school of
Magong's elementary schools</strong>.

<h2>A message from the Principal</h2>
<p>
I believe the essence of education is to help a person become a person. Children
sit at the centre of that work, and teachers form its backbone. When both are
well supported, a school takes care of itself.
</p>
<p>
At Magong Elementary we are working towards excellent administration, a rich and
varied curriculum and professional teaching staff — alongside comprehensive
pastoral care, open communication, and the space for each child's own talent to
be recognised and developed.
