The good news is that no one got hurt We waited until the police came and then my mum took me to school. The worst thing wasn’t the accident! You remember that today I had an important maths test, right? Well, when I got to the classroom, my maths teacher didn’t let me take the test because I was late - only five minutes! Can you believe it? It’s so unfair! I complained, but nothing. He said: 'Rules are rules!’ But I just want to take the test! Anyway. I'm going to write to the head teacher. Maybe he can help me. Waiting for your email! Yours,Robert. New message. SENDADear Mr Clark. I am writing to Inform you about something that happened at school today.

Read email and say if it is formal or informal. New message. SENDADear Ms. Halliday. I am writing to Inform you about something that happened after school today. It was an accident and I feel really bad about it. I was working on a project in the computer room. At some point. I got thirsty and took a bottle of water from my backpack to drink some. However, I spilt water on the keyboard by accident. I immediately turned off the computer and unplugged it and got paper towels to wipe the keyboard. I hope there is nothing wrong with it and it still works. I did not manage to inform the secretary about this because she was busy. I know students should not eat or drink anything in the computer room, and that it was wrong of me to do so. I apologise for what happened. Yours sincerely.
