Dear Ms/Mrs Smith,
I am Angelica Dy, mother of James Dy, and I am writing to enquire from you that your school is planning a three-day trip
next
month to Japan. I have mixed feelings when I heard the announcement from my son because never he had the chance to travel from a long distance, especially to another country. However
, I also
that you want a parent to accompany them on the expedition and I'm glad in volunteering myself for that position. I am a nurse at the hospital, and with my expertise, I can help the children if they get injured along the trip. There was a time that I got to visit Japan during my college days so I can still speak their language even a little. Do let me know what are the plans during the outing and the specific dates in order for me to organize my schedule ahead of time.
I'm looking forward to your reply and I'm expecting it at your earliest.
Yours truly,
AngelicaSubmitted by angelica
