I earned a place in Year 10 at Melbourne International School, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the mathematics course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $850, which is more than we have. I love mathematics and want to become a software developer. A laptop will let me do coursework at home instead of waiting for library hours. I'll take care of everything you give me and I promise to work hard. I'll buy the items from the school's approved supplier and post photos of everything. Where the $850 goes: โ€ข Laptop: $350 โ€ข School uniform and shoes: $260 โ€ข Textbooks and workbooks: $185 โ€ข Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $55 With deep gratitude, Lei
