Subject: PROPOSALS FOR AN OVERSEAS LEARNING JOURNEY

       I’m writing this proposal to propose to you a trip that will broaden the students’ horizons. The place that we have chosen to visit is Hanoi, Vietnam.

       Why choose Hanoi? It has a long and rich historical culture of about 1000 years which I’m sure that students will be fascinated to study and explore their traditional ways of living. On top of that, the trip will be guided by a professional tour guide. This is beneficial as students will be able to knowledge directly from him or her. In addition, meals are provided regularly for the students. They would not feel lethargic and fatigue from the activities planned for them.

        From this trip, the students are able to gain knowledge and have a better understanding of Vietnam’s culture by exploring the rich history and arts of Vietnam, they will be able to better appreciate the arts and music of Vietnam. Furthermore, the students will learn to treasure Singapore’s heritage and take pride in shaping their own unique way of life. Lastly, this trip is value for money.

       Since there is a tour guide to guide them along throughout the journey, their safety are assured. Also, as their meals are provided regularly, students do not have to buy their own food. Thus, they will not wander around and go missing. In addition, they will not consume contaminated food by accident.

       This trip is going to benefit the students, improve their contextual knowledge, broaden their horizon, be more aware the other cultures so that they will be a global citizen who is able to appreciate other cultures and Singapore. Thus, it is a good opportunity for students to go to this trip and widen their knowledge. I hope you will consider my proposal. Thank you..
