Today we started drilling at Adyangowe Nursery & Primary School. There are about 180 pupils at the school. The school is located in the former rebel area of the LRA (Lord Resistance Army).
Until today, the pupils have to fetch water with jerry cans from a distance of about 1.6 km. The water is heavily polluted and the journey is arduous. About 50 children are absent each week because they are sick. Other children are tired after fetching water and cannot concentrate in class.
Today's start of the drilling work marks the beginning of a better future.
