Dear Girls,

I think you know that I was very disappointed with the class today about the state of the library books and the way the back of the class has been left to "rot".

Please remember that it is important that every single one of you play a part in keeping the class a safe and condusive environment to study in. All it takes is one nay-sayer or one person who has the can't be bothered attitude to let everything crumble.

I do apologise if I happened to pick on anyone of you, but understand that if I was deemed to have done so, I had good reasons, and I do apologise for being harsh on some girls:

1) Ginette and Jamie - you two were chatting and laughing when I was trying very hard to address the class. I was upset at your lack of respect. I think both of you owe me an apology.

2) Nicole Heng - you giggled when I said I felt like a servant, I did not think that was necessary. It was a figure of speech and I was trying to get across the idea that it's not just up to me alone to keep the class clean but every one of you. When I asked what was so funny, you insisted you did not laugh, which was obviously not the case. I believe you owe me an apology too.

3) Celeste and Seraphina - I apologise and am sorry if I had been too harsh on you but I understand that you did your best and cannot help it if some of your classmates are irresponsible and do not inform you if they have taken books.

Girls, remember, please finish the library books first before you read extra material from outside places. Only in circumstances when you can find no one to exchange books with that week then should you read other books you have gotten elsewhere.

Thank you for reading and have a nice day. I'll see you tomorrow.

Ms Lam
