In Kodera
2018-well-rig-web2.jpegAs many of you know, the big news from Kodera is the new well at the school.  After drilling two bore holes that were dry, a third try - this time 150 meters down in Christopher's banana yard - yielded 3 cubic meters of water per hour.  At the right, you can see the drilling rig, with some of the first water pouring out at the bottom.

Next they will dig a ditch to pipe it across the road to the school where they will build a water tower and be able to get water right there.  Up til now, it has taken four women all day long, every day, walking 1/4 mile to the nearest water, and returning to the school with 5 gallon buckets.  This is a great thing for the community as well, since Christopher plans to make water available to others for a small fee, that will then be used to help pay for maintenance of the school buildings.
