Dear Ahana,

I hope this letter finds you in fine fettle and in high spirits. I'm writing this letter to you for a special reason. There's a summer camp being organised by Mr. Shrihari Jadhav in Shivpuri Colony itself which will be quite convenient for both of us. I would want you also to be a part of the same. Both of us are going to have a good time together.

We need to focus on various areas of learning apart from school. We need to work on improving our hidden skills and qualities. This camp will help us to do the same. It will help us boost our confidence level.

It also includes personality development, training and lots of fun. Overall, the camp will focus on various social activities which will be a good source of training as well as recreation for us. We'll be learning, developing our personalities, and also be enjoying at the same time. We'll get an opportunity to interact with so many other students of our age. I'm sure that by now, you're really excited about the camp. You’ll be glad to know that the camp will continue for 15 days from 16th May to 30th May 2021 at a nominal charge of ₹ 2000/- per child. You may contact Mr. Jadhav at 9403864601 for all necessary details. Awaiting your reply.

Pay my regards to your parents and love to the young ones in your family.

Yours lovingly,
Tanmay

Subject: Interested in getting enrolled for the summer camp

Respected Sir,

I, Tanmay Mugale, a student of New Heights International School, would like to be a part of the summer camp that you are organising. I saw the advertisement in the local daily. I liked the areas that you are planning to focus on as it’ll be a good source of learning for children. I'm a student of grade ten and it is high time for me to focus on personality development and build up confidence.

I'm glad that through your summer camp many other students like me will be getting an opportunity to explore their hidden qualities and get trained through joyful activities. I'll definitely ask my friends also, to join this summer camp. I'd like to know if we need to bring any kind of materials from home as I want to thoroughly enjoy all the activities and it'll be sad if I miss out on something due to such a reason. I'll appreciate your reply to the same.

Thanking You.

Yours faithfully,
Tanmay

While reading a magazine advertising home products, Sakshi Aggarwal came across an advertisement for a stain remover called Dr. Clean. She decided to buy the product but it caused more harm than good. Complete the letter of complaint she writes to the company using appropriate words.

Dear Sir
I wish____________ to your notice the ridiculous product you have recently launched. I saw a TV advertisement for Dr. Clean and its ability _______ '99 top stains'. I bought the product and _________the least, I regret the money I spent on it.

You claim that your Dr Clean stain removal keeps clothes in wearable condition for a long time and thus helps reduce clothing costs. However, let me tell you what happened when I tried _________a stain left by tea from my shirt. _________the stain remover on the stain does seem to make the stain

fainter temporarily. But here is the problem: a little after you have sprayed Dr. Clean on the fabric, the area around the stain seems to melt away. Soon, there is no stain. In fact, there is a hole where the stain was!
Surely this is NOT what you meant when you advertised The stain will no longer be visible to the naked eye?
