The number of students in the Kapuri Primary School in the countryside of the capital Juba has increased because of the families that have been displaced by ongoing conflicts. As a result, there are not enough desks and 4 and 5 students have started to share the same desk at Kapuri.<\/p>\n<p>T\u0130KA provided 90 desks to meet the Kapuri students&rsquo; needs and created a playground and a volleyball court as well. Besides, it established a facility to meet the water needs of the displaced families. The water well inside the campus was moved outside and a drinking fountain was opened. Thus, displaced families can now meet their water needs without having to walk into the campus.<\/p>\n<p>UN South Sudan Mission Rwanda Union Representative Lt. Col.
