of Duplicate Identity Card
Dear
Sir,
I want to inform you that the day before
yesterday my pocket was picket in the DTC bus. Besides money, my library
identity card was stolen. I came to know of the loss only when I reached the
market place and wanted to make certain purchases. I immediately rushed to the
police station at Tilak Nagar and lodged a complaint.
Since there is little hope of my getting back
the purse, please cancel my old Library Card No. 5/4517 and issue me a new one
in its place. I am prepared to pay the fee for the duplicate identity card, if
there is any.
Please find enclosed a copy of my complaint
lodged with the police station.
Hope for an early response.
Yours faithfully

New Delhi
Sub: Lack of Clean Toilets,
Sir,
I want to draw your kind
attention to one shortcoming in your otherwise good institution. I happened to
go to one of the toilets for students after a school function. I attended this
function as the guardian of my younger brother. I was shocked to see the
condition of the toilets. There was a foul stench all around. Yellow patches
caused by urine were visible everywhere. There was no proper flushing and
cleaning of the pots of the toilets. Some of them seemed to be blocked and
caused overflow of filthy water. The walls bore ugly graffiti.
Since toilet is 6m
essential facility, proper cleanliness and maintenance is a must. I do hope you
will pay attention to this most essential problem.
Thank you
Yours faithfully

7. CLEAN DRINKING WATER
There is no proper arrangement of clean drinking water in

Sub: Lack of Proper Arrangement of Clean Drinking
Water
Madam,
During a recent meeting of
PTA, I happened to visit your school .as the guardian of my younger sister. I
was deeply impressed by the standard of cleanliness and discipline in your
school. One thing, however, irked me most. It is the lack of proper arrangement
of clean drinking water in the school. Although summer has not yet begun, I
found long queues of thirsty students in hunt of the water coolers on the
ground floor. I saw some students quenching their thirst from water taps on the
first and second floors.
Supply of clean, germ-free
water is an essential part of the facilities the school should offer. I suggest
that immediate steps should be taken to instal boosters to provide a running
supply of water to the water coolers on the first and second floors.
I hope you will take
urgent steps in this regard.
Yours faithfully

Sub: Arrange
playground facility
Respected
Sir,
With due regards I would like to bring to
your kind notice towards our difficulties and feelings. We all know that we
have no playground in our school, but we have a bunch of students who are very
good hockey players. Due to non-availability of playground all the players
cannot practise as a team. The interzonal school tournaments are to commence
within a fortnight. As the captain of our school hockey team, I feel morally
bound that our players have proper co-ordination and play as a team and not as
a bunch of players grouped together.
For this purpose, we need playground
facilities. I, therefore, earnestly request you to arrange playground
facilities from a neighbouring school in the morning/evening for an hour or two
so that we may practise together under the guidance of our coach.
I hope to have a favourable consideration.
Yours obediently

Sub: Improvements
in School Library
Sir,
During my visit to your school in
connection with P.T.A. meeting, I happened to go to the library. I would like
to draw your attention to the malfunctioning of the library. I sincerely feel
that it can prove more useful to the students if a few steps are taken to tone
it up.
I was shocked at the disorderliness in the
library. Books were lying in heaps and were not restored to the proper shelves.
No wonder the book which the library has is reported to be non-available by the
library staff. The lack of cooperation from the library staff makes the
situation worse. You may take steps to make them alert and willing workers. The
shortage/non-availability of books, if any, may be made up by buying more
copies of the volumes more in demand. The old and broken tables and chairs may
be got repaired if not replaced.
I hope that during our next meeting we
shall find the library cosy, spick and span.
Yours faithfully

10. MORE
BOOKS FOR THE SCHOOL LIBRARY

The Principal
Manisha Academy
Surat
Sub: Request
for More Books for the Library
Madam,
Being the guardian of a student of your
school, I would like to register my complaint against insufficient number 6f
reference books in the school library. During one of my visits 1 came to know
that CBSE has changed the style of questions in English. It has supplied a book
of questions to every school. I have not been able to procure one from the
market. My sister Nita could not get one from the library. On enquiring from
the librarian, she came to know that the copies of the book containing the
Question Bank in English are insufficient. It is certainly a hurdle as lack of
proper books hinders learning activity.
You know the importance of books in this
competitive age. This particular book has become indispensable for the students
as it informs them about the style and types of questions and thus guides them
in preparation and helps them in self evaluation.
I, therefore, request you to take necessary
steps in order to increase the number of textbooks as well as reference books
in such a manner that they would meet the demands of the students.
I do hope you’ll consider my request.
Yours
faithfully

OF LEARNING COMPUTER
You
are Rajat Mittal of Sarvodaya Academy Senior Secondary School, Vikas Nagar,

Stressing the need of computer learning in the modem age, write a letter to the

students of the school.

The Principal
Sarvodaya Academy Sr. Sec. School
Vikas Nagar,

Sub: Facility
of Learning Computers
Sir,
As the head boy of school, I would like to
put before you a genuine need of the students. Our school is one of the leading
schools in the state and famous for its academic excellence. We students,
however, feel handicapped in one respect only. Our school is lacking in
facility of computer education.
The need of computer education is felt
nowadays by everyone. We know that the modern age is moving fast. The frontiers
of knowledge are spreading fast and unfolding something new every moment. To
cope with the inflow of scientific and technical data, knowledge of computers
is a must. The computers play a vital role in banks, business houses, railways,
airlines, science laboratories and research centres. Without effective training
in computer learning, the students will not be equipped to cope with the
problems they are likely to face in the forthcoming career. If we have to
compete with other countries in the field of science and technology, the
knowledge-of computers must be imparted at an early age.
Keeping in view the facts stated above, I
request you to arrange computer learning facility in our school at the
earliest.
Hope to have a favourable consideration.
Yours
obediently

12. PARAGRAPHS FOR READING SKILLS

C.B.S.E.
Preet Vihar, Delhi
Sub: Reduction in Number of Paragraphs for Reading Skills
Sir,
I agree with the maxim that exams are the
test of one’s knowledge, skill and ability. But I am not in favour of the
number of paragraphs set for reading comprehension and note¬making. These
passages tend to be tedious and boring. The students have to spend more time to
read, analyse and understand them and answer the questions. The result is that
students fail to complete the paper within the prescribed time limit. Thus
these passages harass the students. They do not relish writing answers to them.
In view of the poor performance of the
students in reading skills, I request you, sir, to consider the case of
reducing the number of paragraphs for reading skills. I am confident that two
passages of shorter lengths will unable students to give better performance.
Hope to have a favourable consideration.
Yours faithfully

CURRICULUM OF SUPW
Write
a letter to the Chairman CBSE with suggestions to make the curriculum of SUPW
(Socially Useful Productive Work) effective for real life.

The Chairman
CBSE
Preet Vihar
New Delhi
Sub: Curriculum
of SUPW
Sir,
The curriculum of SUPW (Socially Useful
Productive Work) is quite vast and contains many interesting and useful
activities. The choice of subjects/projects has been left to the institutions.
This has led to a very disturbing state. Many schools have no provision or
facilities for the hobbies/subjects introduced for the senior secondary
classes. There is no field work or practical participation of students. These
periods are reduced to one-way lectures only. The students are so disillusioned
that they call SUPW as ‘some useful periods wasted’. It will be better to
prescribe a limited number of crafts/hobbies suiting the local conditions and
availability of raw material. Please try to make the curriculum of SUPW
relevant and effective for real life.
Yours
faithfully

Sub: Request
to open a career counselling centre
Sir,
My son, Anuj, is a student of class X in your
school and is currently appearing in the Board examination. Very soon, he and
other students of his class will have to make an important decision. They will
have to select the stream/subjects they should opt for at the +2 level. As you
know, this is the most crucial decision of a student’s life. Most of the
parents are unaware of the latest trends in educational/job fields. I,
therefore, request you to kindly open a career counselling centre in your
school to help your students make the correct choice according to their
aptitudes/talents as well as future job prospects. Expert guidance in the field
will prove invaluable to the young students.
I hope you will consider my request
favourably.
With regards and best wishes.
Yours faithfully

EXTRA CLASSES IN MATHS
Examination Hall
……………………Centre
8 January 20XX
The Principal
ABC Sr. Sec. School
XYZ City
Sub: Extra
Classes in Maths
Sir,
The other day we were admonished about poor
performance in Maths in the Pre-Board Examination. We have tried to search our
souls, rack our brains and find out the fault. The reason is quite obvions. Our
Maths lecturer retired in August and stop-gap arrangements were made for three
months by appointing temporary hands. Only last month we were
able to get the guidance from an expert and
competent teacher like Mr. B.M. Garg. However, a lot of our course remains
uncovered and proper justice cannot be done to it in the regular periods only.
. .
Moreover, we have to make up our deficiency.
Drill, revision and classroom tests also require certain periods. In view of
the paucity of time available to us between now and the commencement of board
examination, it is requested that some extra classes before/after school hours
be arranged in Maths for XI and XII classes.
I hope that the request of the students will
be acceded to without any delay.
Yours
obediently
Rajani
