Where the rice fields begin — a small village school reaching far beyond its size 稻田起點上的鄉村小學——校雖小，世界很大
The name Tiantou means "the head of the fields" — the very edge where Changhua's rice paddies begin. The school started here in 1948 as a small branch classroom, became fully independent in 1954, and took its present name in 1968.
Our school crest tells the same story: an open book with a green sprout rising between its pages, set above blue waves on a field of harvest gold. Learning takes root here like a seedling — fed by water, warmed by sun, growing straight up.
「田頭」二字，意思是「田的起點」——彰化稻田開始的地方。學校在 1948 年以分班起家，1954 年獨立設校，1968 年定名為「田頭國民小學」。
校徽說著同一個故事：一本翻開的書，書頁間長出一株綠色幼苗，下方是藍色波浪，襯著金黃的稻田。學習在這裡像幼苗一樣扎根——有水滋養、有陽光照拂，向上生長。
A small school, but a wide life. At Tiantou, children grow through movement, making, and connection.
For a school its size, Tiantou plays big. Children ride unicycles, bounce the net in tchoukball, swing in tee-ball, and roll on inline skates. Sport here is about balance, courage, and trying again — the kind of strength every child can build.
田頭雖是小校，運動卻很精彩。孩子騎獨輪車、打巧固球、玩樂樂棒球、溜直排輪。這裡的運動，練的是平衡、勇氣與一次次再試——這種力量，每個孩子都長得出來。
Tiantou children learn with their hands. They shape clay and fire it in the kiln, build with wood in the workshop, lay bricks, and paint bright murals. Knowing something and making something are two different joys — and here, children get both.
田頭的孩子用雙手學習。他們捏陶、進窯燒，在工坊裡做木工，砌磚、彩繪。「知道」和「做出來」是兩種不同的快樂——在田頭，孩子兩種都擁有。
A small school is never alone. Tiantou shares an English teacher with neighbouring schools, films its own bilingual Word of the Day videos, and learns English through local life — rice dumplings, meatballs, and the Taiwanese spoken at home. Small, yet connected to the world.
小校從不孤單。田頭與鄰校共聘英語老師、自己拍攝雙語「每日一字」影片，從在地生活學英文——粽子、貢丸，還有家裡說的台語。校雖小，卻與世界相連。
Say hello to Tiantou — a one-minute bilingual welcome from our own campus.
Principal Chen Yen-lung has led Tiantou Elementary since August 2021 as the school's 17th principal. The school's five-word vision — 積極・感恩・健康・快樂・自信 — runs through everything from the playground to the classroom.
陳彥龍校長自 2021 年 8 月起帶領田頭國小，是第十七任校長。五字願景——積極、感恩、健康、快樂、自信——從操場到教室，都看得見它的影子。
We welcome educators, parents, and friends to visit our small school in Zhutang Township — where the rice fields of Changhua begin, and where children learn to move, make, and connect in two languages.
