PRINCIPAL'S LETTER

Dear Student Rep,

Thank you for your help in organizing the recent International Day.

As you know, this was the first event of its kind which has been held in the college. Hoping to hold similar events in future, we need to assess how successful the International Day proved to be.

I would be grateful if you could carry out a survey among the students and prepare a short report on their reactions. Please include some recommendations based on your survey.

Your help is appreciated.
