SCHOOL TRIP Class 5B is going to the zoo on Friday, 20 October. The bus leaves school at 8:30 and comes back at 3:00. Please bring a packed lunch and a bottle of water. The price is 8 euros. Parents must sign this form by Wednesday.
NOTE FROM A PARENT Dear Ms. Clark, I'm sorry, but I can't sign the form today. My son Jack has a bad cough. If he's better by Friday, he can come. Can he bring the money on Friday morning? Thank you, Mrs. Ford.
ANSWER FROM THE TEACHER Dear Mrs. Ford, thanks for your note. I hope Jack gets better soon. I need the form signed by Wednesday, because I must send the final list to the zoo. Please send it with Jack on Wednesday, even if he is ill. He can pay on Friday. Best wishes, Ms. Clark.
