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!

Hi Peter,
Wow! Congratulations on your good score in science! That is amazing! What do you like about studying science? When I was in university I studied earth science, so I learned about how animals interact with the land and how mountains are made. Did you know that the mountains in Nepal grown almost one inch per year? I thought that was amazing when I learned it!

Good luck during games day! What games do you play? I hope you do well!

All the best,
Christi
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
To the School Fund,

Hi, how are you? I hope you are very fine. Thank you for sponsoring me. I am doing very well and having fun. We are doing very well in school and trying to be at the top. I am going into grade six next year.

The most fun thing I will do this holiday is help our matrons and enjoy. The most fun trip I have ever gone on is to Mombasa. The best part was when I swam in the Indian Ocean.

My favorite part about celebrating Christmas is when I open my presents and have fun. I will thank God. I am happy because I will get to celebrate with my brothers and sisters, volunteers and matrons.

May God bless you.

Love,
Peter Mbugua
