A message from the community

Dear Sir/Madame,

The management, the children and the entire Chandera Primary community wish to express our sincere appreciation and gratitude for responding to our need, during the breakdown of our pump on Jan 9, 2017.

The school now enjoys full supply of water. We are very grateful for your support.

Yours faithfully
