| Finally Green Energy for Ereri Primary School |
| Ereri Primary School is located in a remote area north of Ol Pejeta. Here, among other infrastructural challenges, schools and households are off-grid and have no access to electricity.
However, thanks to Ol Pejeta’s ongoing partnership with Woodpecker International Foundation, Ereri’s prospects are looking bright. A group of volunteers recently installed a 5000W solar system, fully capable of powering dormitories as well as a new computer laboratory.

| Wild Discovery Fact |
| Did you know? Chimpanzees are some of our closest relatives. These great apes share 98.6% of their genetic DNA with humans.
Their interactions and behaviour bear many uncanny resemblances to humans. Like us, chimpanzees are known to make use of tools – using rocks to crack tough nuts and long, thin twigs to fish for termites. They are the only primates to have developed tool use to such an advanced level.
