You are the president of the student council at your secondary school. Write a formal letter to the school principal requesting the installation of new water fountains in the school courtyard.

Use a formal register throughout.
Answer Options
A.
Dear Principal,
I am writing to suggest adding more vending machines in the school courtyard. The current lack of snack options forces students to bring unhealthy food from home. Providing vending machines would increase convenience and revenue.
We kindly ask that the school allocate funds for this project.
Yours faithfully,

President, Student Council
B.
Dear Principal,

Correct Answer
C.
Dear Principal,
I am writing on behalf of the Student Council to request the installation of new water fountains in the school courtyard. The current lack of drinking facilities forces students to purchase bottled water, which is costly and environmentally harmful. Providing water fountains would encourage regular hydration, improve student health, and reduce plastic waste.
We kindly ask that the school allocate funds for this project or consider seeking sponsorship from local businesses. Your support would greatly benefit the entire school community.
Yours faithfully,
