Dear Sir,
SUGGESTION FOR A SCHOOL PROJECT
I write on behalf of the students of Unity Secondary School to express our sincere gratitude for selecting our school as the winner of the competition recently organized by your esteemed organization. We are highly delighted by this achievement and deeply appreciate your generous offer to undertake a project in our school as part of the prize.
After careful consideration of the school's most pressing needs, I would like to suggest the construction and equipping of a modern school library. Although our school has a room that serves as a library, it lacks adequate books, furniture, and learning facilities needed by students for effective study and research. A well-equipped library would therefore be of immense benefit to both students and teachers.
Firstly, the library would improve students' academic performance. Access to textbooks, reference materials, journals, and other educational resources would enable students to carry out research, complete assignments, and gain a deeper understanding of subjects taught in the classroom. This would help students perform better in internal and external examinations.
Secondly, the project would encourage the development of good reading habits among students. Many students rely solely on classroom notes because they have limited access to books. A modern library would motivate students to read widely, improve their vocabulary, and broaden their knowledge beyond the school curriculum. This habit would contribute significantly to their intellectual growth.
Thirdly, the library would provide a conducive environment for learning. Students often need a quiet place to study, especially during examination periods. A properly furnished library would offer a comfortable atmosphere where students can concentrate, read, and engage in meaningful academic activities without distractions.
In view of these numerous benefits, I strongly believe that the construction and equipping of a modern library would be the most suitable project for our school. It would leave a lasting impact on generations of students and greatly enhance the quality of education in our institution.
Thank you once again for your kindness and commitment to promoting education. I look forward to a favourable consideration of this suggestion.
Yours faithfully,
Adebayo Emmanuel
School Prefect

Three Measures Students Should Take to Protect Themselves Against Malaria
Malaria remains one of the most common health challenges in many parts of Africa, especially in Nigeria. Every year, thousands of students miss classes, examinations, and other important school activities because of malaria-related illnesses. Since the disease is spread through the bite of infected female mosquitoes, protecting oneself from mosquito bites is one of the most effective ways of staying healthy and maintaining good academic performance.
One important measure students should take is to sleep under insecticide-treated mosquito nets. Many mosquitoes that spread malaria are most active at night, making sleeping hours a period of high risk. A treated mosquito net acts as a protective barrier between the sleeper and mosquitoes while also killing or repelling insects that come into contact with it. Students who consistently use mosquito nets are less likely to suffer from malaria attacks, allowing them to remain healthy and focused on their studies.
In addition, students should ensure that mosquito nets are properly hung and free from holes. A damaged net may allow mosquitoes to enter and bite the person sleeping inside. Parents and guardians should also be encouraged to replace worn-out nets whenever necessary. Making the use of mosquito nets a daily habit can significantly reduce the chances of contracting malaria.
Another important measure is to maintain a clean environment and eliminate mosquito breeding sites. Mosquitoes lay their eggs in stagnant water, which can be found in open containers, blocked gutters, old tyres, broken bottles, and puddles around homes and schools. When these places are left unattended, they become breeding grounds for mosquitoes, increasing the risk of malaria transmission.
Students can contribute by participating in regular environmental sanitation exercises. They should properly dispose of waste, clear bushes around their surroundings, and ensure that water storage containers are tightly covered. Schools can also organize cleanliness campaigns to educate students about the dangers of dirty environments. A clean environment not only reduces mosquito populations but also promotes overall health and well-being.
The third measure is to use additional protective methods against mosquito bites, especially during the day and evening hours. Students should wear clothing that covers their arms and legs whenever possible, particularly when spending time outdoors. Long-sleeved shirts and trousers can help reduce exposed skin and limit mosquito bites.
The use of mosquito repellents and insecticide sprays can also provide extra protection. Repellents applied to the skin or clothing help keep mosquitoes away, while insecticide sprays reduce the number of mosquitoes indoors. Students should also keep doors and windows screened where possible and close them during periods when mosquitoes are most active.
Protecting oneself against malaria requires awareness, discipline, and consistent action. Although malaria is a serious disease, it can be prevented when individuals adopt the right habits and take necessary precautions. Students, in particular, have a responsibility to safeguard their health because good health is essential for effective learning and academic success.
In conclusion, sleeping under insecticide-treated mosquito nets, maintaining a clean environment, and using additional methods to prevent mosquito bites are three practical measures students can take to protect themselves against malaria. By following these simple but effective steps, students can reduce their risk of infection, stay healthy, and concentrate fully on achieving their educational goals.

DEBATE SPEECH: Against the Motion
TOPIC: Technical and vocational education should be mandatory in secondary schools.
POSITION: Against the motion.Good morning, Mr. Chairman, panel of judges, accurate timekeeper, co-debaters, and members of the audience. My name is Timothy, and I am the main speaker opposing the motion that technical and vocational education should be mandatory in secondary schools. While the intentions behind this proposal may seem progressive, making such programs compulsory for every single student is an impractical approach that ignores individual freedom, strains limited school resources, and undermines core academic excellence.First and foremost, enforcing mandatory vocational training completely disregards the diverse interests, natural talents, and career aspirations of individual students. Every child possesses unique strengths. While some students are naturally inclined toward hands-on technical skills like carpentry, mechanical engineering, or fashion design, others are destined for theoretical and abstract fields such as law, philosophy, pure mathematics, or literature. Forcing a student who aspires to be a theoretical physicist or a historian to spend hours learning woodwork or catering is a massive waste of their time and energy. Education should be a platform that nurtures individual potential rather than a rigid system that forces everyone into the same mold. When students are forced to take subjects they have absolutely no passion for, it breeds frustration, lowers academic morale, and can ultimately lead to general poor performance across all subjects.Secondly, our secondary education system is already burdened with a heavy academic curriculum. Students are currently required to master complex concepts in sciences, mathematics, humanities, and languages. Introducing mandatory technical and vocational courses would create an intense cognitive overload. Vocational education is inherently time-consuming, requiring extensive practical hours to master a craft. Adding this demanding workload to an already congested timetable means that either core academic standards will suffer, or students will face extreme academic burnout. We cannot afford to dilute the quality of foundational academic learning. Instead of making these courses compulsory, they should remain optional electives so that only students who genuinely wish to pursue technical pathways can do so without jeopardizing their core studies.Furthermore, the economic and structural reality of implementing this policy makes it completely unfeasible. Technical and vocational education requires specialized infrastructure, including modern workshops, advanced machinery, safety equipment, and expensive raw materials. Many secondary schools, especially in developing regions, already struggle with basic necessities like functional science laboratories, well-stocked libraries, and stable electricity. Forcing these institutions to set up standard technical departments would result in poorly equipped workshops where students learn outdated skills on broken equipment. Additionally, there is a severe shortage of qualified vocational instructors who possess both technical expertise and pedagogical training. Without proper funding, modern infrastructure, and skilled teachers, a mandatory vocational policy will merely exist on paper as a low-quality, superficial exercise that provides zero value to the youth.In conclusion, secondary education should focus on providing a broad, balanced foundational framework that allows students the freedom to choose their own paths. Mandating technical and vocational education is an overly restrictive measure that ignores student individuality, overloads the school curriculum, and imposes a financial burden that our schools cannot sustain. Therefore, I strongly oppose this motion. Thank you.

*THE NIGHT BURGLARS STRUCK THE ELECTRONICS STORE*
It was a calm Saturday evening, and I had gone out to buy some food items for my family. On my way back, I passed by a popular electronics store known as CityTech Plaza, located along my street in Lagos. The shop had closed earlier than usual that day due to a power outage, and the surroundings were unusually quiet.
As I approached the area at about 9:45 p.m., I noticed two motorcycles parked suspiciously behind the building. At first, I ignored them, thinking they belonged to customers or staff. However, what caught my attention was the absence of the usual security guard at the entrance. The shop looked dark, and there was no sign of activity, yet I could hear faint metallic sounds coming from the back of the building.
Curiosity made me move closer, but I remained cautious and hid behind a nearby fence to observe what was happening. From my position, I saw four men dressed in dark clothing attempting to break into the store through a side window. One of them was using a screwdriver and pliers to remove the window protector, while the others kept watch, looking around nervously.
After several minutes, they succeeded in forcing the window open and silently entered the shop. Shortly after, they began passing out cartons of expensive electronics such as mobile phones, headphones, and small generators. They loaded the items onto the motorcycles they had parked behind the building.
What surprised me most was how organized they were. Each person had a specific role, and they worked quickly without making unnecessary noise. However, their operation was disrupted when a passing tricycle (keke) driver slowed down nearby, possibly noticing unusual movement. This made the burglars panic.
In their confusion, one of them accidentally knocked over a metal shelf inside the shop, producing a loud crashing sound. The noise attracted the attention of a nearby resident who immediately raised an alarm. Within minutes, a neighbourhood watch group arrived at the scene.
On seeing the approaching vigilantes, the burglars attempted to escape with the stolen items. In the process, they abandoned some of the electronics and rushed towards their motorcycles. One of them managed to escape, but two were quickly overpowered and caught by the vigilante group, while the remaining one fled on foot into a nearby street.
I immediately came out of my hiding place and explained everything I had witnessed to the vigilante members. I gave them a clear description of how the men broke in, what they stole, and the direction in which the escaping suspect ran. My account helped them secure the area and recover some of the stolen goods.
Later, the police arrived at the scene and took over the situation. The shop owner also came and was shocked at the level of damage caused by the burglars. Many residents gathered around, discussing the increasing insecurity in the area.
That experience was frightening and unforgettable, as I had never witnessed such a bold criminal act before. It taught me the importance of vigilance and the need to report suspicious activities promptly to the authorities.

10th June, 2026.
Dear ekepereamaka,
It was absolutely wonderful to receive your letter last week! I am always thrilled to hear from you, and I sincerely hope this reply finds you and your family in excellent health and high spirits. I must apologize for taking a few days to write back; our final term assessments just concluded, and I finally have a moment to catch my breath and reply properly.
In your letter, you mentioned how impressed you were with my consistent academic performance and asked for the "magic formula" behind how I manage to top our class every single session. Honestly, there is no hidden secret or sudden magic trick. It is simply a combination of deliberate habits, discipline, and a structured approach to learning. Since you asked for my advice, I am more than happy to share the three main strategies that have consistently worked for me over the years.
The first and most critical method I devised is strict consistency through a personalized study timetable. Many students make the mistake of waiting until a week before the examinations to start cramming massive volumes of information. I realized early on that this approach only leads to panic and superficial understanding. Instead, I dedicate exactly two hours every single evening to reviewing what was taught during the school day. I study even when an exam is months away. This daily habit ensures that concepts are deeply ingrained in my memory long before the revision period begins, reducing exam stress to an absolute minimum.
Secondly, I actively leverage the power of peer teaching and collaborative group discussions. I firmly believe that you never truly understand a topic until you can explain it simply to someone else. Therefore, I formed a small study group with three dedicated classmates. During our free periods, we take turns teaching each other difficult topics, particularly in challenging subjects like Further Mathematics and Physics. Whenever I explain a complex theorem to a classmate, it reinforces my own understanding and exposes any gaps in my own knowledge. Furthermore, listening to my peers' perspectives often provides unique insights that I might have missed during standard classroom lectures.
Finally, I have mastered the art of meticulous note-taking and active recall testing. During classes, I do not just passively copy what the teacher writes on the board. Instead, I listen intently and jot down key summaries, conceptual mind maps, and specific questions in the margins of my notebooks. Over the weekends, I convert these notes into flashcards and self-administered quizzes. Actively forcing my brain to retrieve information from memory—rather than just passively re-reading my textbook—drastically improves my retention capacity. This ensures that I can accurately reproduce facts, formulas, and arguments accurately under strict examination conditions.
Of course, alongside these study techniques, I also ensure that I get adequate sleep each night and maintain a balanced diet. A exhausted brain cannot perform at its peak, no matter how many hours you spend staring at a book.
I am completely confident that if you adapt these three strategies to fit your own routine, you will see a massive leap in your academic grades by the next session. Consistency, collaborative learning, and active retrieval are truly the cornerstones of academic excellence. Try implementing them starting next week, and let me know how it goes!
Please extend my warmest regards to your parents and your little sister. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours affectionately,
Chimezie
