Subject: My school and hobbies
Dear Eva,
How are you? I am doing good! Thank you for your e-mail, it was nice to hear from you.
I go to school in Grootebroek. The school is called Vonk. My favourite subject is English, because I am good at it. Where do you go to school? I don't really like maths, because I think it is very difficult. My hobbies are gaming and horseriding. What are your hobbies? I am sitting in the classroom and writing this email to you right now. What are you doing right now?
I would love to hear from you soon!
Kind regards,
Robert
