Children back at school

Getting back to normal

You have to try and get back into a normal routine after such a catastrophe and this is particularly true for the children.

Going back to school is a priority.

Volunteers from Veolia Waterforce help to achieve this by helping to clean and repair the premises and supply drinking water and ensure the necessary hygiene requirements are met.
The volunteers are overjoyed to see the children smiling again.
