Dear sir,
I am writing to you regarding the proposed trip for the school children to Dubai next month. My daughter is a 4 year old grade one student in your school and I would to know more about the trip.
Firstly
, I would appreciate it if I could get the specific date that the tour will commence and also
the details of activities to take place while
in the United Arab Emirates. Although
I will have a busy schedule at work next month, however
, I would love to join the group in Dubai.
As to the reasons for showing interest, firstly
, Bryan is still a toddler and needs to be well taken care of by me. He has some level of autism, therefore
, being around someone he is comfortable with will help to confidently participate in every fun activity with other children.
So, being a part of the tour will make the planning committee's work easier. I would be able to cater for his needs, clean him up and feed him when necessary. Also
, the security team will worry less about his safety.
I hope you will consider my request.
Yours faithfully,
Moses.Submitted by callmosomitoyin on
