Lagos State.
10th June, 2026.

The Director,
Bright Future Foundation,
Lagos State.

Dear Sir/Madam,

A PROJECT THAT WILL BE USEFUL TO MY SCHOOL

I am writing this letter to sincerely thank your organization for giving my school the opportunity to benefit from one important project after winning the recent competition organized by your non-governmental organization. We are very happy and grateful for this honour. On behalf of my school, I would like to suggest that your organization should build a modern library for us.

A library is one of the most important facilities needed in a school. Many students in my school love reading, but we do not have a well-equipped library where students can sit quietly and study. The few books available are old and not enough for the number of students in the school. Therefore, I strongly believe that building a modern library will help my school in many ways.

Firstly, a modern library will improve the reading habit of students. Many students spend their free time playing or making noise because there is no comfortable place for them to read. If a good library is built, students will have a quiet place to read novels, textbooks, newspapers and other educational materials. This will make them more serious with their studies and help them gain more knowledge.

Secondly, the library will help students to perform better in examinations. In a good library, students can find textbooks and past question papers that will help them prepare for both internal and external examinations. Some students cannot afford all the textbooks they need, but if the school library has enough books, such students will be able to read and learn like others. This will surely improve the academic performance of the school.

Thirdly, the library will also help teachers in their work. Teachers need books and other materials to prepare good lessons for students. If the library is well equipped, teachers can make use of it to gather more information before teaching. This will make their lessons more interesting and easier for students to understand.

In addition, a modern library will improve the image of my school. Visitors, parents and other organizations will see that our school values education. It will also encourage more students to take their studies seriously.

I therefore kindly request that your organization should consider building a modern library for my school. We shall be very grateful if this project is carried out, because it will benefit both present and future students.

Thank you very much for your kindness and support. May your organization continue to grow and help more schools.

Yours faithfully,

MEASURES STUDENTS SHOULD TAKE TO PROTECT THEMSELVES AGAINST MALARIA

By a Concerned Student

Malaria is one of the common diseases that affects many people in our society. It is caused by the bite of an infected female mosquito. Many students suffer from malaria from time to time, and this affects their health, studies and general performance in school. A student who is sick with malaria may not be able to attend classes regularly or concentrate well while learning. Therefore, it is very important for students to take necessary steps to protect themselves against malaria.

The first measure students should take is to keep their surroundings clean. Mosquitoes usually breed in dirty places and stagnant water. Students should make sure that empty tins, broken bottles, old tyres and containers that can hold water are removed from their environment. Gutters should also be cleared regularly so that water can flow freely. In the school compound, students should join hands with the school authorities to keep the environment neat. When the surroundings are clean, mosquitoes will not have enough places to breed.

Another important measure is that students should sleep under treated mosquito nets. Mosquitoes usually bite people mostly at night when they are sleeping. A treated mosquito net helps to prevent mosquitoes from biting a person during sleep. Students who stay in hostels should make sure they use mosquito nets properly every night. Those who live at home should also encourage their parents to provide mosquito nets for them. It is not enough to own a mosquito net; it must be used regularly and correctly.

Students should also avoid exposing their bodies to mosquitoes, especially in the evening and at night. They should wear clothes that cover their bodies when mosquitoes are many. Long-sleeved shirts, trousers and socks can help to reduce mosquito bites. Students should also avoid sitting outside for too long in dark and bushy places because mosquitoes are usually found there. If they must stay outside, they can use safe mosquito repellent on their skin to protect themselves.

In addition, students should make sure that doors and windows are properly protected with nets. Mosquitoes can easily enter rooms through open windows and doors. If the windows are covered with nets, mosquitoes will find it difficult to enter the room. Students should also close doors early in the evening because that is the time mosquitoes often enter houses and hostels.

Furthermore, students should not ignore the early signs of malaria. Symptoms such as fever, headache, weakness, vomiting and body pain should be reported quickly to parents, teachers or health workers. Students should avoid treating themselves wrongly or buying drugs without proper advice. Going to the hospital or health centre early can prevent malaria from becoming serious.

In conclusion, malaria is a dangerous disease, but it can be prevented if students are careful. Keeping the environment clean, sleeping under treated mosquito nets, wearing protective clothes, using window nets and seeking medical help early are good ways to fight malaria. If students take these measures seriously, they will remain healthy and perform better in their studies.

DEBATE

TECHNICAL AND VOCATIONAL EDUCATION SHOULD BE MADE COMPULSORY IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS

The Chairman, panel of judges, co-debaters, teachers and fellow students, I greet you all. My name is Chijindu Njoku, and I am here to support the motion which says that technical and vocational education should be made compulsory in secondary schools.

Technical and vocational education is the kind of education that teaches students how to do practical work with their hands. It includes things like carpentry, tailoring, computer work, farming, catering, electrical work, plumbing, hairdressing and many others. I support this motion because students should not only go to school to read books and pass examinations. They should also learn skills that can help them in life.

Firstly, it will help students to have something useful to do after school. Today, many young people finish secondary school and stay at home because they do not have money to continue their education immediately. If such students have learnt a skill in school, they can use it to help themselves. For example, a student who learnt tailoring can sew clothes for people. Another student who learnt computer work can type documents or help people with simple designs. This is better than staying idle at home.

Secondly, it will reduce the rate of unemployment. It is not everybody that will get an office job after school. Even many graduates are still looking for jobs. If students are trained in vocational skills from secondary school, they will not depend only on government work or white-collar jobs. Some of them can start small businesses with the skills they have learnt. With time, they may even employ other people.

Thirdly, technical and vocational education will help students to discover what they are good at. Some students may not be very good in subjects like Mathematics and English, but they may be very good in practical work. Some can repair things, cook very well, draw, farm or make things with their hands. If schools give them the chance to learn these things, they may become successful through their talents.Mathematics

Also, this type of education will make learning more interesting. Students will not only sit in the classroom every day copying notes. They will also have time to practise what they are being taught. This can make many students love school more, especially those who enjoy practical work.

Some people may say that making it compulsory will disturb students from reading their normal subjects. I do not agree with them. If the school timetable is properly arranged, students can learn vocational skills without affecting their other subjects. It can even help them to understand life better.

For these reasons, I strongly support that technical and vocational education should be compulsory in secondary schools. It will help students to learn useful skills, reduce joblessness and give many students a better future.

Thank you.

A REPORT OF THE BURGLARY I WITNESSED IN A DEPARTMENT STORE

My name is Tunde Adewale. I am a student of Victory College, Ibadan. I am writing this statement to report a burglary which I witnessed at Grace Department Store on Saturday evening.

The incident happened around 6:30 p.m. I went to the store to buy some provisions for my mother. There were not too many people in the store at that time. Some customers were picking items from the shelves, while others were waiting to pay at the counter.

As I was standing close to the counter, I noticed two young men enter the store. One of them was wearing a black cap and a brown jacket, while the other was wearing a blue shirt and black trousers. At first, they looked like normal customers, so nobody suspected them.

After some minutes, one of them moved to the shelf where body sprays, wristwatches and small phone accessories were kept. The second man stood near the entrance and kept looking around. I became suspicious because he was not picking anything from the shelf. He only stood there as if he was watching the people in the store.

Suddenly, the man near the shelf started putting some items into a small bag. One of the sales girls saw him and shouted, “Thief! Stop him!” Immediately she shouted, the man pushed her away and ran towards the door. The second man opened the door for him, and both of them rushed outside.

There was confusion in the store. Some customers shouted, while others moved back because they were afraid. The manager of the store quickly ran after the two men and called for help. I also came outside with some other customers.

The two men ran to a motorcycle that was waiting by the roadside. As they were trying to escape, a security man from the next building blocked the motorcycle. The rider lost control and fell down. One of the thieves was caught by people around, but the other man and the motorcycle rider escaped through a nearby street.

When the bag of the arrested man was opened, some stolen items were found inside it. They included body sprays, wristwatches, phone chargers and small packets of perfume. The store manager asked the people not to beat him and said the police should handle the matter.

I saw the arrested man clearly and I can identify him if I am called upon to do so. I can also identify the second man because he was tall, fair in complexion and was wearing a blue shirt. I believe the security camera in the store can also help the police in their investigation.

This is the true account of what I witnessed at Grace Department Store.

Dear Samuel,

I was very happy to receive your letter last week. I was also glad when I read that you wanted to know how I always come top in my class. Thank you for the good words you wrote about me. I do not think I am the most brilliant student in the school, but I try my best to do the right things at the right time.

The first thing that helps me is that I pay attention in class. Whenever a teacher is teaching, I try not to play or talk with my friends. I listen carefully and write down important points. Some students think they can understand everything later, but I have found out that the best time to understand a topic is when the teacher is explaining it. If I do not understand anything, I ask questions before the lesson ends.

Another thing I do is that I read my books every day. I do not wait until examination is near before I start reading. When I come back from school and rest for some time, I bring out my books and revise what we were taught that day. This helps me to remember things easily. It also makes examination period less difficult for me because I will not be trying to read everything at once.

I also have a personal timetable which I follow. The timetable helps me to know the subject I should read each day. I give more time to the subjects I find difficult, especially Mathematics and Basic Science. I do not always follow the timetable perfectly, but I try as much as possible to obey it. Without a timetable, it is easy to waste time without knowing.

Another important habit is that I do my assignments by myself. I may ask for help when I am confused, but I do not like copying everything from another person. Assignments help me to know whether I truly understand what I was taught in class. When I make mistakes, I learn from them and try to do better next time.

I also avoid bad friends. Some students do not like reading, and they laugh at those who take their studies seriously. I try not to spend too much time with such people. My close friends are students who also want to do well. Sometimes we read together and ask one another questions. This has helped me a lot.

Lastly, I pray and rest well. Reading is good, but too much worry is not good for the brain. I make sure I sleep well, especially when examination is close. I also ask God to help me remember what I have read.

My dear friend, these are the things I do that help me come top in class. You can also do the same if you are serious and patient. Do not be discouraged if you do not see the result immediately. Just continue to work hard, and I believe you will improve greatly.

Extend my greetings to your parents and your younger sister. I hope to hear from you soon.

Your friend,
Daniel
