Dear Chloe's parents,

It was very nice to see Chloe today. She worked very hard throughout today's lesson (as always). She also had many positive stories to share about her Summer holidays, especially the Summer camp she is attending. She loves making electrical items such as flashlights, etc. Very cool!
