I have asked the children to take down many statistics from this book. Certain portions of the book have been kept as a subject in our school.

We want to open a gallery on "Water, a great asset in our life" in our school campus to make the children conserve and tap water where it falls. In this regard, we expect your valuable support.

One portion of rainwater is sent to the ‘collection cum treatment tank’ through a drainpipe where water is converted into water for potable and non-potable purposes. The remaining treated rainwater is flushed into an open well through a percolation tank. This is in addition to overflow water flowing into it automatically.

The second portion of the rainwater from the catchment area directly flows into the open well through the grit arrester, silt arrester and then main percolation tank near the well. A portion of this is now let into a newly constructed sump through another filtration tank and my tenants (two families) are also enjoying rainwater!

The remaining portion of rainwater flows directly into the garden where an arrangement has been made to spread the water all around the house.

Due to water depletion in our area during the 1985-86 drought our well water had also become non-potable with high iron content, salinity and brackish water seeping oozing out from the bottom of the well. We re-laid the welll with pebbles, sand, and other materials and for filtration purposes, introduced back pressure treatment that has brought the well water quality and quantity to total adequacy and clarity.

The wastewater from the bathrooms and kitchen is recycled (double filtration) and reused for gardening. Similarly, the used water in the backyard service platform is also taken to another filtration tank and used for gardening through pipeline drip irrigation.
