      Hi Linda,

      How are you? Thanks for your email. I think sports at school in Viet Nam are different from sports in Canada.

      At school we do lots of PE (Physical Education) and in winter we play ice hockey – it’s the national sport of Canada.

      I love going really fast on the ice! At our school girls and boys play rugby too. I don’t like because I am very bad at throwing and catching the ball, but I like watching our school rugby team when they play.

      In the summer, we play table tennis and do athletics. I’m OK at table tennis and I’m really good at athletics because I can run fast. I run the 100m, 200m.

      There are lots of after-school sports clubs at my school: football, volleyball, basketball, and judo. I do judo on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.

      Sometimes in the summer I go swimming with my friends at the weekend and in winter we often go ice skating. I love ice skating – it’s great.

      Write soon.

      Amy
