A different ‘school-life’ now with solar power

Project: Tiyende Pamodzi Girls Secondary School

Role: FORM 2 STUDENT

We are happy with the water system that we have now. Last year it was hard for me to access water from the hand pump which is far. This was also contributing to our poor performance because it took us a lot of time and energy to pump the water, carry it on our heads to clean the classrooms then attend the classes after. Also, the coming of clean and running water has made me feel more safe and clean during my menstrual cycle than before. We have a school garden that we use to learn agriculture. It is now easy to water our plants using the taps that has been installed in the garden.
