On return from COVID-19 hand washing station ready
Our headmaster and Emmanuel went to look at touch-less hand washing stations in the village. Our welder, who makes all our school needs, designed our own touch-less hand washing stations.
We were given funds by donors from Operation Bootstrap Africa to buy COVID-19 supplies. THANK YOU OBA DONORS!!
