Dear Sir/Madam，
I live next to your school in Grasmere Road and I am writing regarding the very bad behaviour of some of your younger students. In addition to this, I should like to bring to your attention to the irresponsibility of certain members of your staff when supervising (监督) students' evening activities.
Firstly, concerning the students' behaviour, I should like you to make it very clear to those students walking along Grasmere Road towards the station that my front garden is not a place where people are allowed to leave their rubbish. When they leave school in the afternoons, they pass my house and throw empty cans, waste paper and even cigarette packets (although most of them are below the age for smoking) on my grass.
Could you also please ask your students not to shout and use bad language in the street, as this is harmful to the reputation of both your school and the area?
Regarding certain members of your staff, you are perhaps unaware of the fact that their evening activities sometimes continue well beyond ten and the noise is too loud. Last Thursday night the noise did not stop until 10：30 pm. Surely the members of staff supervising these activities could bring the events to a close at a suitable moment.
I know that I am speaking for many families in the area when I ask you to speak to your students and staff about these matters.
Should they continue to be so inconsiderate, I shall be forced to take matters further and shall have no choice but to write to the council (地方议会)．
Yours faithfully，
Mrs J Barker
