Letter from Novia - Surat dari Novia

Hey there friends, what’s up? Good? I hope all my friends are healthy and happy.

What's your name? My name is Novia Amalina, and I am in grade 3 at SD Sekaralas 1, which is the name of my Primary school in Sekaralas.

Is it true my friends, that you have lost loved ones? I know from the news on TV and in the newspapers. The news makes me very sad. It makes me want to cry.

The new school year has just started and I’m now in Grade 3. I was the first prizewinner in Second Grade and the prize was five books. What grade are you in? What’s your school like? I hope your school is OK. Can you get to school easily? Do you have enough to eat and drink? Where do you get your clothes?

Keep your spirit strong, my friends. I will pray for you. My warmest wishes.

Your friend
Novia Amalina
