personal letter, it is written on the top right hand

formal letter slides
The body
This is the main part of the
letter where ideas, stories or
requests are communicated
to the addressee by the
sender. It can have many
paragraphs as the writer
wishes to have.
I completed Grade 10 three years ago and am now upgrading my marks at the NCD
FODE school with the hope of doing University studies. Even though I do not have
journalism qualifications, I have been writing sports and other reports for a small
community paper for two years now.
The paper, Northwest News, covers community development stories in Port Moresby
Northwest electorate and other neighbourhoods in Port Moresby and Central province.
English was my favourite subject in school as evidenced by the good grades I got.
I have played rugby league, soccer, volleyball and some cricket and use the knowledge..
Closing
The writer closes the letter in this
part with phrases like, ―Yours
faithfully ―Yours truly, ―, yours
sincerely ,- Regards and so on used
in closing a letter. They are written
before the name of a writer.

Regards,
Postscript (PS)
Often a sentence or two can be
written after the writer has
completed the letter. Here,
things that are forgotten and
may not have been included in
the body of the letter can be
written here. At other times,
things that are not very
important can be written here
The workshop will help train teachers who may later be engaged by the department to work
on new curriculum teacher workbooks.
Name/Signature
The name of the writer is
written in this part. Often
the signature of the writer
is written one line above
his/her name. This ends
the letter.
