Overview

The Taipei City Local Education Center is hosting a special exhibition titled ‘Lao Song Eats 120’ from May to July this year. Wait, ‘Eats 120’? Does 120 refer to food?

In the exhibition, visitors can witness the changes in Lao Song over the past 120 years, including alterations in backpacks, exercise books, and even the staff’s official seals. But why organize a special exhibition for an elementary school established since the Japanese colonial era?

In recent years, due to declining birth rates and changes in resources, the former prosperity and vibrancy of Lao Song are no longer visible. The exhibition’s display cases provide a glimpse into the past, allowing visitors to reminisce about every detail of the school’s history.
