範文(原創短示範)

Email to a principal about a broken water fountain

Dear Ms Chan, I am writing on behalf of Class 5C about the water fountain on the third floor, which has been out of order since last Monday. During the two breaks, students now crowd the ground-floor fountain, and several of us have been late for the lesson after recess. The weather has been hot this week, so the problem is more than a minor inconvenience. Would it be possible for the caretaker to inspect the fountain this week, or to place a temporary bottle station on 3/F? We would also be happy to put up a notice so that students do not keep pressing the broken tap. Thank you for your time. I look forward to your reply. Yours sincerely, Chris Wong Class 5C
