Dear Grandma,

Well, it’s a month since I came to Tonbridge Language School. Wow, I am so busy! I get up at 7.00 every morning.

1.  I usually have  six lessons a day. In the afternoon, I study in the library and in the

evenings I sometimes go to a  sports club or a disco. I usually have meals in the school  canteen. The food there is

quite good. The place is really   big. 2.  I didn’t know where to find anything. Now I

know where all the  buildings are and I know where my  classrooms are. I live nearby so I go on foot to all my

classes. 3.  I can  sleep a bit longer in the  morning and come home during the lunch

break. 4.  Do you  think you could send me some of  your homemade  chocolate

cookies?

Well, I have to finish now. Take care.

Love,

Steve
