A message from the community

Dear Sir, It is with great joy that I express thanksgiving for the refurbishment of our pump. Our students have been suffering since it has been down and the repair was too much for us. It is a great relief to see the water flowing freely again for all the students and staff and then after school for people in the neighbourhood to draw water from. Please accept our gratitude and know that our prayers are lifting you up. School Principle
