Pernier – A very exciting location to visit. The kids here are so excited about learning! This school was built, and funded by the Japanese Government; having grades 1-12. However, aside from learning, children at time have to collect water for this location. At one point it would take 2 hours to collect water for the school. They even had a water filtration system (bio-sand), but has since broken. In the school property there is also a church. This water well will provide fresh, sustainable, drinking water to over 1000 people!
