Peter, it's really great to hear that you want to be a space scientist. We're making so much progress in Space nowadays and we cannot wait to see how you'll be able to contribute moving forward. Let us know your progress and interests as you move forward!

How are you? I hope you are all fine. The reason of writing this letter is to tell you that our school is going on well. My best subject is science. I like science because when I grow up I want to be a scientist. This time, when I came for holiday, I got 90%.

Our school is still going on well and we are still doing very well. I promise you that I will work hard to get 400 marks in my class. I would like to thank you for everything you have done for me.

May God bless you and protect you. The last thing that I would like to tell you is that in the second term we are having games days so I have to do a lot of practice.

Thank you.
From,
Peter Mbugua
