Subject: School activities last summer

Dear Nam,

How are things? Did your school have any community activities last summer?

We did some very interesting activities. We collected rubbish in a nearby park. We also planted trees. Then we watered them every day, and it was enjoyable to watch them grow up. We also had a lot of fun and learnt some skills.

Please write to me and tell me about your school activities.

Best,

Tom
