Dear
Mira,
Hi, How are you there? I hope you are fine as
usual. Mira, I am writing to tell you my experience as a voluntary worker in
school. We cleaned the area around our school, move the grass and bushes
behind our classroom and repainted walls.
As the chairman of the students organization
(OSIS), together with our committee members, we planned and discussed the
right time to do this voluntary work. After a long discussion, finally we
agreed to hold it last Saturday.
On that day, fortunately we did not have to study
as we had just finished our final examination. So, while waiting for our
teachers who were busy writing our ‘report book’ and with the help of Pak
Bejo we did it. We were having a good time because we could play while we
were working. I wished you could join us at that time.
What about you?
How do you spend your free time at school? How's your Karate group at school?
I hope to hear from you, write me soon, Thanks.
Best Wishes,
Seno
