DRINKING WATER AND SCHOOL LEARNING IMPROVEMENT FOR VISUALLY IMPAIRED AND OTHER STUDENTS
School is a big inclusive society where hundreds of children are directly involved and cascade their future. From innocent children to adults, they spend the invaluable time of their lives in school. Health, education, and security is the most important priorities. The school is responsible for the basic requirements of every student. Sanitation, hygiene, and pure drinking water are basic things to provide in the school. Durga Secondary School is trying its best to fulfill the needs of the students. The efforts have not been sufficient in the areas of providing clean drinking water for the increasing number of students every year. The one under use are almost outdated and function-less. The school is facing big challenge regarding drinking water. The tube well water is full of iron and sand while pipe water is not regular in supply. To mitigate this problem, the school is looking for some donor agencies and supporting hands to construct sustainable water resources for the school. Due to lack of proper water supply, the teaching and learning activities have been affected greatly since students keep standing in line for their turn to drink water. On the other hand, the school has no boundary ( compound) wall which has left open for anyone easy entrance. Students park their bicycles outside the school building. Since it is closed to the road and market place, the bicycle has been stolen everyday. Students keep complaining about the loss of their bicycles but the school has no answer. If the parking area is managed, there would not be such a problem.
To provide safe drinking water for the students & teachers of Durga Secondary School. Clean water, sanitation, and hygiene education are basic necessities for a healthy environment and a productive life.
This project will benefit the students with access to clean water and sanitation, waterborne diseases decrease, children stay healthier and attend school more regularly, and mothers can spend less time carrying water and more time helping their families.
