Developments around Kopan during the last month

It is two months since the earthquake and life is still very difficult.  We were lucky that BFCC was not damaged too much. There were a few cracks, but they have been patched.  The new upstairs room is still standing and we have added a fence to prevent the children falling onto the street below.  The electrician has installed the wiring.
People still have to collect water and the local committee has built a large underground tank which will fill during the Monsoon.
Waiting in line for water.  Just put the container in the line and return to fill it later

Putting up the railing at BFCC.  This is near the back of the building and you can see the stairs which go up beside the toilet

People who have come into the fringes of Kathmandu and are camped in the forest at Ghorkana.  They are being helped by the government, but Netra was buying water for them.
They will be living in tents until it is safe to return home to their village
The children are going to a school nearby.  It was organized by a charity.

New Science equipment being demonstrated at Yagamati School.  The Government is trying to introduce Science teaching into all schools, but the equipment is rather expensive

It is a pitiful fact that the Government is trying to introduce Science teaching into all schools, but the equipment is rather expensive, as education is a window to the bright and seamlessly easy future!
