A message from the community
Dear Sir/Madam, On behalf of the Rutara Primary School and the entire community we wish to say thank you for coming to repair the water pump which was broken. We now have plenty of water that we needed so much more now that we have to wash our hands all the time due to covid 19 prevention. We highly appreciate this and are proud to be associated with you. Sincerely, Margaret Kamau, Head Teacher
