CATCH THE DROP SHOWS
The Catch the Drop Campaign is very important because it makes us aware on the importance of saving each and every drop of water. A special show with the 'Frozen' theme was shown to our students where Elso and Olaf showed our children the importance of water in our life and how we must care for it. With a good clean, fresh water supply, our lifestyle will be much better.
