Our Work

We had a productive day at Durban Deep Primary School yesterday.  Since there was no school because of the strike, we were able to get the first layers of paint on the staff room, cleaned classrooms including ceilings, cleaned desks (tables) and chairs, swept floors, picked up trash, and one crew replaced door handles and did other maintenance work.  The school is built at a mine site so the ground is poisoned with uranium and arsenic and the water there is not safe to drink.  The mine building is not being used but the office building for the mine is being used as the main school building.  Then there are many portable classrooms (containers) on the site.  There is so much dust.
