Gulou District No.1 Center Primary School
Gulou District No.1 Center Primary School (Chinese: 南京市鼓楼区第一中心小学), situated at 42 Shanghai Road, Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, is an experimental elementary institution in Jiangsu Province.[1]
History
The institution was established in 1933 as Wutaishan Elementary School (Chinese: 五台山小学).[2] In 1937, the school served as one of the 25 refugee shelters within the Nanjing Safety Zone,[3] being the first to accept migrants three hours after the Chinese government issued a circular, with the capacity to accommodate up to 1,640 refugee families.[4][5] Subsequent to the establishment of the People's Republic of China, the institution was rebranded as Gulou District No. 1 Central Primary School.[6] In 1960s, the children's film The Secret of the Magic Gourd, shot in Gulou District No. 1 Central Primary School, garnered national fame for the elementary institution.[7]
