福井市棗小中学校, Combined elementary and junior high school in Fukui, Japan
Fukui Natsu Elementary and Junior High School is a combined school in Fukui that teaches students from both primary and secondary levels under one administration. The facility includes modern amenities such as a swimming pool from the 1970s and classrooms designed to serve students across different age groups.
The school originated from the merger of Obata and Ishibashi elementary schools, both established in 1873. Following several restructurings, it became the Natsu combined school in 1947 and evolved into its current elementary and junior high format over the decades.
The school implements educational programs that connect students with local traditions through regular participation in community events and regional cultural activities.
The school is located in an established residential area of Fukui with good access by public transportation. Keep in mind that it is an active school facility, so visiting access may be limited and it is advisable to contact the school beforehand.
Until March 2017, the facility operated as a kindergarten-elementary-junior high complex, offering care and education for multiple age groups under one roof. This transformation marked a significant shift in how the school organized its services for the community.
