Sample Writing

Dear Principal and Teachers,

I am Chan Tai Man, Sam. I am eleven years old. I live with my parents and

my younger sister in Fanling. I am studying in Lee Chi Tat Memorial School in

Sheung Shui.

I am a hardworking child who loves learning. I have good academic results,

especially in English and Music. I am a member of the Chi Tat Leadership

Academy from P.3 to P.5. I am also a member of the Premier English Reading

Scheme. I read the series of books by Roald Dahl in P.4 and Harry Potter by J.K

Rowling in P.5 and P.6. I am a book lover. I like reading not only English books

but also Chinese ones, for example, the Legend of the Condor Heroes. They are

fabulous and attractive. Through reading, I gain knowledge and learn a lot of

vocabulary. Apart from the above, I am a member of the Drama Club in my

school as I am interested in acting and performing on stage. I gain

self-confidence and boost my public speaking skills through performances.

In my leisure time, I like not only reading but also playing tennis. I have

learnt to play tennis since I was five. Playing tennis helps to keep me fit and

healthy. So, I seldom get sick. During the weekends, I often play tennis with my

friends at Sheung Shui Tennis Court. It helps to release the tension in my study,

and it is great fun! I will keep on learning it. As the saying goes, ‘The more you

learn, the more you know.’

I hope to be a doctor when I grow up since I want to help the sick people. I

understand that it is not easy to be a doctor. To strive for my dream, I will work

hard and read more books about medical knowledge.

My primary school life will come to an end soon. I hope to be one of your

students as I know that your school is outstanding, and it emphasizes both

academic results and the holistic education of a child. I would be grateful if you

could offer me a chance. I will try all my best to study hard and bring honour to

the school.

Yours faithfully,

Chan Tai Man
