New Toilet Facility for Fatumu

This was a project where we were able to build a new toilet facility as the old one was about to fall in and the floors around the toilets was rusted out and leaking sewage.  We felt it was very necessary for the health of the children and teachers at this school to do this project.  They did a wonderful job and are very proud of the job that they did.

This is the old toilet facility, as you can see the roof is bad and there are cracks in the walls.

This picture shows the crack in the wall how bad it is.

Here you can see the cracks in the floor and the sewage that is leaking through. The children were afraid to go in as they were afraid the floor would break and they would fall in, which was a possibility!

Here are the students of the school.  They are wonderful to be around!  We love their beautiful smiling faces and those dark dancing eyes!

This is our Champion, Talaiasi, in our Project, he is the Principal of the school.

Here we thought they were going to have a feast, but we soon discovered it was all for us and was being loaded into our car along with baskets of fruits and vegetables.

Here they come to load our car!

The car is loaded, we even have some of the seats down in order to fit all the food in that they wanted us to take!
