W:Unluckily,now I have to tell you an unpleasant accident that happened at our school last night. The cleaners have just gone when the school gym was broken into. A window was broken in the boys’ changing room. The cleaners had put away the equipment,so nothing was stolen from the gym, but something bad was done to the building. The thieves went into the library and two computers were stolen. Books and magazines were thrown onto the floor. We have reason to believe that the thieves who got into the building were some young people. Any information about this terrible event must be sent to me by the end of the week.
