Ithithananm HSS Photo Essay

Photos from Ithithanam School Visit

We loved going to Ithithanam school because they were so sweet and treated us with the greatest greeting, even though they are a public school with less funding.
Our grand greeting. 
The chalkboards in the classrooms.
They greeted us at the entrance with a traditional Hindu welcoming ceremony. It includes get a  sandlewood paste dot on our foreheads and in addition they gave us all a rose.
They gave us all a coconut to drink.
They showed us the water purification system paid for by the H2O for Life Project, as well as the pumps  H2O funded for too.
Part of their campus. The water tank is on the right, it collects rain water.
