St. Margaret's School


This is the school I work at, St. Margaret's. It is in a rural village outside of the city. The school is both government and church based, which means half of their funding is from the government and the other from the catholic church. 






Wednesday, we had to leave school early because it was so hot and there was no water in the whole village, which means the kids didn't have enough drinking water to keep them from fainting- which one student almost did Tuesday. So, the principal ordered everyone to go home early and get stored water from their house. These are just everyday realities for the people here.
