Water Tank for our toilets
Barwon Water gave St Therese a grant of $3500 after Mr McCarthy applied for it.
We spent it on a tank which was put behind the toilets. All the water is collected from the 1/2 and toilet roof and then goes into the tank.
We reuse the rainwater from the tank to flush the toilets. There is a pumpmthat changes the water supply to our local water in case we run out of rainwater.
It is important to use the rainwater as it doesn’t cost any money and it is good for the environment.
