Dear Dad,

How are you and how is everyone at home? I hope Mum's health has improved and that the twins are behaving themselves. I am writing to tell you about my experiences in this new school, where I have now spent about six weeks.

I am happy to report that I have settled down well. On the day you dropped me off, I was frightened and lonely, but the seniors in my house welcomed me kindly and showed me around. My housemaster, Mr. Danladi, is firm but fatherly, and he has helped me to adjust to the routine. I now wake up early for morning devotion, keep my corner of the dormitory tidy and know my way about the large compound.

The academic work is more demanding than in my former school, but I am coping. The teachers are dedicated and explain their lessons patiently. I particularly enjoy Mathematics and English, and my teachers have praised my class work. The school library is well stocked, and I spend my free periods there reading storybooks and doing my assignments.

I have also made a few good friends, especially my roommate Sadiq, who comes from Sokoto. We study together and encourage each other. Apart from studies, I have joined the Press Club and the football team, and last week I scored a goal in an inter-house match.

The only difficulty I have is with the food, which is quite different from Mum's cooking, and I sometimes run short of provisions before visiting day. Please, when you are sending my next supplies, kindly add more garri and tinned milk.

Do give my warm greetings to Mum and everyone at home. I look forward to seeing you on the next visiting day.

Your loving son,
Ibrahim.
