頭條 · 一所小校登上全國舞台
🏆 National HERO Talks · 2026
A 76-student school made the National Top 10 — and took home Best Interaction.
六年甲班入圍第 19 屆小學生公益行動 HERO Talks 全國前十強,並獲「最佳互動獎」

In May 2026, the Grade-6 class of Nanjhou Elementary took its public-action project to the national finals of the 19th Children's HERO Talks, presented their proposal alongside teams from much larger urban schools, and walked away with the Best Interaction Award — recognition for how the children connected with the audience, not just delivered information.

For a 76-student rural school in southern Changhua, that's the kind of news a community lives on for a year. The whole school assembled to watch the announcement; the principal said only one thing: "You were heard."

2026 年 5 月,六年甲班把整個學期的公益行動企劃帶上「第 19 屆小學生公益行動 HERO Talks」全國決賽。和許多大都市的學校同台後,南州不只入圍全國前十強,還抱回「最佳互動獎」——表彰的不是內容本身,而是孩子們和台下觀眾的連結方式。

對一所七十六人的偏鄉小校而言,這是一條足以讓社區津津樂道一整年的消息。全校集合看公布結果那天,楊校長只說了一句:「你們被聽見了。

媒體側記 · 三巨榕的兩篇報導

Nanjhou's three banyans — Kuanrong, Tangrong, Nanrong — are the school's longest-running news story. Two articles from Liberty Times, six years apart, tell most of it: the celebration, and the storm that came after. 南州三巨榕——寬榕、糖榕、南榕——是南州最長壽的新聞主角。自由時報相隔六年的兩則報導,講完了大半的故事:先有慶典,再來風暴。

For Nanjhou's 100-year anniversary, the school invited the children to name three centennial banyans — Kuanrong (Japanese era), Tangrong (sugar era), and Nanrong (county era). The trees' canopies stretched over 50 metres; students called the space underneath "the green dome." 百年校慶時,全校投票替三棵百年榕樹命名:寬榕(日治)、糖榕(台糖)、南榕(縣府)。樹冠橫幅超過 50 公尺,孩子們稱樹下為「綠色巨蛋」。

After Typhoon Megi tore out Tangrong in September, Nanjhou and Mingdao University's Department of Japanese gathered 80 hand-made teru teru bōzu; students sang the Japanese folk song "Itomakimaki" in a circle around the trunk. The then-principal called it "the best life-education class we ever taught." 梅姬颱風吹倒糖榕後,南州與明道大學日文系一起做了 80 隻晴天娃娃;學生環繞樹幹唱日文童謠《捲線歌》。當時校長林銘科形容:「生命教育最好的一堂課。」
