Subject: Hello!

Hi Tim,
It’s the school sports day today. We only have it one day every year and you’re not here! It’s one of my
favourite days of the year, but it’s not the same without you.
Tell your friends in Sudan about all the different games we play at the sports day. I know you want to tell
them that you usually win the long jump. But tell them I always win the high jump!
You should tell them about our favourite games. We love the fun ones like the egg and spoon race, the
three-legged race and the tug-of-war! Tell them our parents sometimes do these races too. It’s so funny
watching them!
Write soon,
Ben
