The raw water source was changed from one bore hole to another. The reason was the water from the first bore hole has a slight iron smell to it that the Ghanaians could detect. The second bore hole required a new pipe to be laid (buried) from the second bore hole to the water room - at least 300 yards - thanks Michael!
The school has added an addiotnal 7 5G water dispensers to the campus for a total of 11. 4 in the girls dormitory and 4 in the boys dormitory and 3 in the admin building. Wow!
Almost all of the 2G water bottles are in use.
Water room is over the top and improvements continued to be made like adding glass shutter panes to the windows to let light in but keep dirt out.
The water committee told us that they are figuring out how to add the health and hygiene training into the schools orientation curriculum for all new students.
In the coming year the school is planning on their students distributing water to other (less fortunate) schools in Kibi - along with some form of the health & hygiene information.
That's a really good 1st follow up!!
