Fairlop house
Elmbridge School,
Cranlerigh,
Surrey,
Dear Stephen
I hear from our Headmaster, Rev.K.N.Senior, that
you have been awarded a place in our school and that you have
been allocated to our house. We congratulate you, for naturally
we think that Fairlop is the best of all houses, and we all
look forward to welcoming you amongst us next term.
I am sorry that I can not write to each of you
personally, but have to send a duplicate letter instead, but
we are all very busy at the moment with examinations and end of
term activities, and I thought you would like to hear from us as
soon as possible.
It is very difficult to describe our House and our
House routine in a letter, especially as it varies slightly every
year, but later on in this letter, I will descibe a typical day
to give you some idea of what to expect. I know that some of you
have already visited the School with friends already pupils here,
and that some of you are planning to come down now that you know
you have a place. Can I therefore invite all of you to come down
and meet us any time before the end of term ? I would especially
like to meet your parents before you start next term if they can
manage the time to come down. In actual fact, although it is
rather short notice, next weekend, July 1st or 2nd, would be an
excellent time, for the School has its 'Open weekend' with displays
of work, music concert and P.E. display (Sunday only) and of course
all the staff and boys will be ther. If you do decide to come down
either next weekend, or any other time, will you ask one of your
parents to drop me a line so that I can expect them and make
arrangments to meet them ?
