Githunguchu Primary School

The students currently use water from an old borehole well which provides contaminated, salty water. There is also an old catchment tank on the grounds that leaks and doesn't hold enough water to get through the long stretches of drought. The boys latrines are currently adequate and being used regularly by the students. The girls latrines are failing and in need of replacement. Due to the lack of water, students rarely wash their hands. There is rampant water borne disease across the school population due to lack of clean water causing absenteeism due to illness and a drop in school performance.
