Salerno
I earned a place in Year 11 at Salerno Science Academy, and I couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things I need, including a laptop for the chemistry course, and a uniform. My mother works two jobs, and the list costs $800, which is more than we have. I love chemistry and want to become an architect. 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. Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag. Where the $800 goes: • Laptop: $430 • School uniform and shoes: $175 • Textbooks and workbooks: $110 • Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $85 Thanks for reading all this. - Carla

  • Thanks for sharing this. Study hard! My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
