Solar Heating

Solar heating is a capital project that we need to seriously consider. It is clean and environmentally friendly. Solar heating will be environmentally wise and save capital in the long haul. We have not done any cost inquiry that will provide solar heating for the school buildings, the student and the teachers' dormitories and the dining hall building.

Athletic Field and Playground Equipment


A Running Tract and Soccer Field is a requirement for an Elementary and Middle School in China. Bo Ai is a private school and at this time, Bo Ai is without a Running Tract and a Soccer Field.
There is adequate land behind the Middle School for a 200 Meter Running Tract and for other tract and field events. In the center of the Running Tract, there can be a Soccer Field. The cost of building the Tract and Soccer field is US$ 714,000.

Elementary School Teacher's Dormitory

When the Elementary School was built in 2003-2005, it was built with substandard materials. The Elementary School Boy's Dormitory had to be remodeled two summers ago and the Elementary Education Building was remodeled last summer. This 2018 summer Bo Ai plans to remodel the Elementary School Teachers Dormitory. The three floor building including heating ducts, radiators, toilets, bathrooms, needs a total repair and remodelling. The cost of the remodeling is US $95,000 (600,000 yuan)

Relaying of Water Pipes

The Fire Reservoir water pipes, the hot water pipes for floor heating and hot and cold water pipes providing water for daily usuage to the Middle School Buildings were laid under concrete roads, within soil, without easily accessible trenches and have been leaking since this winter. Hence this last winter which had been intolerably cold caused many students/staff to catch colds. The plan is to route the pipes within trenches where they can be readily accesible and a worker cam crawl in and not have to cut into concrete roads in the future. One can expect that the old pipes would leak somewhere In the future. The cost of this plan is US$ 78,000 (490,000 yuan).
