Hi, David,
We are having a long break now and I decided to write a letter to you. A few days ago you asked me about my school.
Well, my school is large and light. There are three floors in it. There is a gym, a library, a canteen and a few classrooms on the ground floor. There are many classrooms and a teachers’ room оn the first and on the second floors.

My school life is wonderful. There are lots of concerts, performances and sport competitions in our school. My classmates and I often take part in different school events. I have a lot of friends in my class.  Our teachers are kind and intelligent and my classmates are smart and friendly.

Tell me a few words about you and your school and friends. Have you joined any sport club? Do you like your teachers?

That's all for me for today. I have to go to Maths lesson.

Best regards to your family.
Write soon.

Helen

I (am) very sorry to hear about your mother’s illness, and (am) glad that you (are going) to Scotland to see how she is, 10 It (will be) nice for her to see you. 11 Of course I (will look) after Tim. 12 We thoroughly (enjoyed) having him last year and my dog (was missing) him when he (had left) and (was looking) for him everywhere. 13 I’m sure he (will be) delighted to see him again. 14 Will you (bring) him on Tuesday afternoon? Or, if that (does not suit), any Wednesday. 15 (Do not bother) to bring dog food; I (have) enough 16 I hope you (will have) time to have tea with me when you bring Tim, and that by then you (will have had) better news of your mother.
