A letter to Aina

Aina

Dear Aina,

We were glad that you were a star pupil at the prize day of your kindergarten early last December.
You won the champion prizes for English and Bahasa Malaysia (Malay) writing competitions as well as for colouring competition. And you also won a prize for talented pupil of the six-year group.

All had not come easy for you were it not for your determined and untiring effort in becoming the best in your class.

But apart from all that, we were most delighted when your mother shared with us a photo of an array of colourful envelopes that you’ve prepared yourself. We were told they contained farewell gifts for your teachers.

Very impressive, Aina! How thoughtful of you to remember that your teachers have done a lot for you.

Giving them farewell gifts is a great way of showing your appreciation for them for the fun and joy of learning that they’ve shared with you.

But we also hope you aren’t forgetting the one teacher who’s very dear and near to you.
Congratulations, Aina! Well done. You’ve done us proud. Keep up the good work.

 

Love,
Grandpa & grandma
