The Most Dangerous Ways To School

Series 2 Episode 2: Nicaragua

Every morning, the three sisters climb into their logboat in order to row to school. They live on the east coast of Nicaragua, one of the world's poorest countries, and the youngest of them has just turned five; the oldest is nine. They row across the Rio Escondido. Not only is it one of the largest rivers in the country, it is simultaneously one of the most dangerous routes to school.
