Dear Alam

How are you? In your last letter you wanted to know about the school I study in. You know that I am lucky to study in zilla school situated right near to the Dhaka Highway, Not very far from the centre of the town. It has an area of 4 acres and has three buildings and a large field. I should say we are lucky to have ample space both at classes and at fields. The building house the classroom, the laboratories, the teachers, lounge and the office. We also have one canteen in one building. In the field we have space for football and kabadi.
