Dear Mike,

Thank you for your last letter.I want to ask you a question. Our English teacher says that you can’t wear what you like at school. Is that really true?

In Germany pupils can wear what they like. I think this is better. In a school uniform you look all the same and we don’t want that. School uniform is terrible.

When I go to school I put on my favourite clothes: my red shirt with the crocodile on it, my Italian trousers, my white American tennis shoes and when it’s cold I put on a pullover. But I don’t like blazers and ties. So I don’t wear them at school.

What do you usually wear at school?

Please write back soon.

Yours Peter
