Dear Parent/Guardian,
BREAKING OF SCHOOL RULE BY SCALING THE SCHOOL’S FENCED WALL
Management of the school regrets to inform you that, as a result of your ward’s refusal to obey school rules by scaling the fenced wall upon several warnings, he has been billed to bring three (3) bags of cement. This will enable Management to put the broken fenced wall in shape and also serve as a deterrent to others. Management expects to receive the three (3) bags of cement on or before
Thank you in anticipation.

Meanwhile, According to a whistle Blower within the Institution, final year students are to be suspended and prevented from having their meals if they fail to provide the bags of cement demanded by management.
