As such, the students promised to treasure every tree and blade of grass on the renovated school grounds, to treasure every moment spent in class, as well as to understand, offer and develop the strong sense of love they have come to feel and give back to the community through their outstanding and ever-improving performances in their studies.
The Shaoyang GCL Sunshine Elementary School was formerly known as Shaoyang Beita District Xintan Village Elementary. Founded in the 1960s and experiencing a number of changes and shifts throughout its history, the schoolhouse had become old, dilapidated and too small for the needs of the surrounding community, and generally unable to provide studying conditions at a satisfactory level. However, even with this being the case, the performance of the educators at the school was met with widespread critical acclaim, and the school was awarded with honors and accolades at the national level as well as recognition as a “Base for Training Young Writers” by Hunan Provincial authorities. In September 2011, following on-site inspections by GCL Sunshine Charity Foundation staff as well as a full review by the Foundation’s Investigative Committee, the decision was made to offer a donation towards the reconstruction of the school. Work on the project took off in the following month, and during the construction phase, the working team was able to overcome the many difficulties presented by the local weather and geographical conditions and finish construction before the end of 2012. While the school was being rebuilt, GCL sent a number of civil engineering experts to monitor the progress and provide guidance for the construction work in order to ensure a full and comprehensive guarantee of both construction safety and quality. Thanks to the tireless support of the local government as well as all sections of the local community, educational offerings at the school were brought to a whole new level by the amount and quality of hardware, software and equipment available to students and teachers. Today the school is fully operational with 640 students attending, a faculty of 36, and teaching progressing at a tidy, orderly pace.
