Dear class3, 

Yesterday, I had very sad news. My mother, who lives in London, is very ill. I have to go to England to see her. When I am there, I will stay with my sister and her family. The good thing for me is that I will get to see my nephew, Arturo, who is the same age as you. 

The other bad news is that I may be away from Argentina for a few weeks. While I am away, Mr.Diaz will be your teacher. Please work hard for her what wonderful children you are and how much you have learned so far this year.

I will write to you from England and tell you what I am doing. I hope you will write to me too. I will miss you all. 

From Mrs Sabella.

​Dear Mummy and Daddy,

​We are having a good time with Grandmother.

​We have just come back from a trip to the beach. It seemed to take a long time to get there and the beach was quite crowded. At first I thought that the trip was going to be the waste of time, but I soon changed my mind.

​First grandmother gave us money for a drink and we both felt better after that. Then she found an empty piece of beach and put up a sort of beach tent. It was great! We could change in private, and so we were soon splashing around in the water. When we came out, it was good, to have the tent to get out of the sun. Can we get a tent like that?

​I hope you are having a quite time without us.

​Lots of love,

​Padma
