Hello. I've learnt a lot of new things over the past 6 months. We've also begun to work in groups and participate in different activities. I've enjoyed this and done well, I think. I send my thanks to everyone who is helping me.
Thank you to The School Fund for giving me the chance to continue studying. It's difficult to believe that I've now started my final year at high school. I'm trying to think what to study next but it's difficult to decide. Maybe a course in design or perhaps something more technical? Thank you very much for your support.
