Dear Aunt,
You would be happy to know that I have been chosen ‘The student of the year’, in my school. The Principal Rev Father Johnson, broke the news today morning, during the school assembly. The award shall be given to me on the Founders’ Day, which falls on the 10th of February.
This prize was introduced three years ago, to motivate students of the final year ICSE. It is to acknowledge their achievement in the field of academics and extracurricular activities.
I was expecting some reward in view of my good academic score in the pre-board examinations. However the ‘Student of the year’ award was a bit of a surprise. The judges probably took into account my performance in the ‘Crossroads’, an inter school cultural event held in the city. I had won the first prize in the debating competition, and was also rewarded for my acting performance in the play ‘Hamlet’.
I am very delighted and would be happy if you could be with me when I receive the award.
I shall be looking forward to seeing you soon.
Your affectionate nephew,
Shourya.
