A new report by WaterCAN reveals that nearly 40% of water samples tested at South African schools are unsafe to drink. The month-long project saw pupils from 95 schools test tap, tank, and river water, many showing contamination and low pH levels. The report further reveals that for many pupils, especially in rural and quintile 1-3 schools, water has become an item they carry from home, with some schools relying on streams or rainwater for daily use. For more on this Bongiwe Zwane spoke to Dr Ferrial Adam, executive manager of waterCAN
