When walking down through the paddy fields today I came across a laundry and met some children there who go to local private school. My home here is at the top of the ridge you can see in this picture.
It costs around 6000 rupees a month (about £50) to send a child to a private school but only a few of the local people here have that amount of money.

These clothes looked really clean when the children put them on the line. Some of the shirts at Amar Jyoti School do not look as if they have ever been near water! Perhaps that is because the children have to walk further to get to a tap.
