Water System

Water is one of the critical design elements in permaculture. A good design aim to capture, use it efficiently, reuse and deal with waste water sustainably .There is a tank placed by the classes and we recommend for more tanks as there are many roofs in the school. With the design, the school can source more cisterns from the county to make sure they harvest most of the water to take them throughout the dry spells. The amount of expected rain water is calculated by the amount of rainfall and the surface area of the buildings roofs. The cisterns need to be placed on the higher parts of the land by office to utilize the gravity in any part of the farm. The runoff water from the gate, parking area and outside the buildings will be directed to the established swales to stop, spread and sink it to benefit and regenerate the whole farm. The aim is to plant the rain and make sure any drop is retained in the farm and properly utilized since it’s a huge resource.
