Dear Father,
I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to inform you about my inability to come home during the autumn break, which I understand might be disappointing for both of us. I want to explain the circumstances that have led to this decision.
As you know, the autumn break is approaching, and I was eagerly looking forward to spending quality time with you and the rest of the family. However, there have been some unexpected developments at the school that require my presence and attention during the break.
Firstly, our teachers have planned some intensive academic sessions to help us prepare for the upcoming mid-term exams. As a senior student, I feel a sense of responsibility to perform well and set a good example for my juniors. These additional classes will provide me with the opportunity to revise important subjects thoroughly and ensure that I am well-prepared for the examinations.
Secondly, I have been elected as the head of the school's student council, and this role comes with added responsibilities during this time of the year. As a leader, I am required to work closely with the faculty and organize various school events, including the annual sports day and cultural festival. I am committed to fulfilling my duties to the best of my abilities and contribute to the school community.
Lastly, the school is organizing a special leadership training program during the autumn break, and I have been selected to attend this valuable opportunity. This program aims to enhance our leadership skills, foster teamwork, and develop our overall personality. I believe that participating in such events will not only benefit me personally but also benefit the school community in the long run.
I understand that my presence at home during the break is significant to you and the family, and I share the same sentiments. Please know that it was not an easy decision for me to make, and I will miss being with all of you dearly. However, I promise to make the most of my time at school, excel in my studies, and fulfill my responsibilities with dedication.
I hope you understand the reasons behind my decision and extend your support and encouragement as always. I eagerly await the winter break when I can be back home and spend cherished moments with you all.
With love and warm regards,
