  1. Juru School

  2. These children are from Juru School, Juru Sector in Rwanda. Students are aged between 4 and 18 years old. There are 900 students and around 50 students in each class.

  3. Juru School has a new rainwater harvesting tank which is underground. The rainwater is collected from classroom roofs into rainwater jars.

  4. From the rainwater jars, pipes take the water to a huge tank underground. A water pump (above) is used to collect the water.

  5. “Before we had the rainwater harvesting tank, we would get water from the lake. The lake is an hour away and we would go before school and bring the water with us. There was never enough. I would often miss school as collecting water took a long time but now we have safe water to drink at school and I can come every day.” Monique, aged 15.

  6. Although the rainwater harvesting tank has a filter, the water is not quite pure enough to drink. Once it’s collected, the water is then poured into filter buckets which have taps on the side. It’s from these that the school community get their drinking water.

  7. Thank you for joining We really appreciate your support!
