They attend Mobile Central High School, about a 40 -minute drive south of St. John's. Bottled water was first brought in last June after some parents raised concerns that the school's well is closer than the 75 -metre buffer required for grave sites. Susan Stamp, one of 800 members of a local parents' group fighting a planned extension of the high school, says a photo taken Wednesday appears to show that tap water relied on for hand washing and showers is a light brown colour. School board officials were not immediately available to comment. http://www. metronews.ca/news/canada/2017/09/08/students-get-bottled-water-over-con cerns-school-s-well-is-too-close-to-graveyard. print. html 1 /1 /!-- This code was added to remove the metadata from document view in Weblink -->
