In Writing, Mary's group have been focussing on writing to and for a specific audience. One of the topics was to address the issue of having a liquor store so close to our school. The Ihimaera writing group all chose a specific audience to write their letters of concern to. Most wrote to the owner himself but Mary decided to write to our Prime Minister, Jacinda Adern. The letter was e-mailed to her office and an automatic reply came through that the letter has been received. Also around this time, Jacinda Adern had her baby so there was a delay in her reply. However, on Tuesday this week an e-mail came through with a written reply from the Prime Minister to Mary's letter. Here is a letter and we are so excited appreciative that the Prime Minister replied to Mary.

Hi Mary,!
ReplyDeleteWow, I am so proud of you! I can't believe Jacinda Ardern has written back to your letter about the liquor store around fen church.
Once again, Well done!
