Explanation

Dear Ekpika,

I am very happy to write this letter to you. How are you and your studies? I hope that you are doing well in all areas of your endeavours. I am quite alright in health and in my studies. My dear friend, Ekpika, I have the pleasure to relate to you the valuable lessons I have learnt on the recent excursion. Our tourism mistress, Mrs. Uionkpan Odey announced to all students in Ss3 that twe will embark on an excursion to Yankari National Park, located in Bauchi State, in the north eastern Nigeria, on 20th May, 2021. On that day, we left Obio Usiere for Bauchi State. The bus carried eighteen students and two teachers including our tourism mistress Mrs. Urionkpan Odey. On the arrival in Bauchi, the state capital, we were directed to Yankari Game reserve in the south-central part of Bauchi state.

The park is the most developed wildlife park in Nigeria with a lot of attractions for visitors. The park is famous for its variety of animals for viewing. We went there in the month of May, because that is the period of the year that the animals converge around the Gaji River, Baboons, Waterbucks, Elephants, Crocodiles, Bushbucks, Duckers, Warthongs, Hippopotamus were some of the animals that we saw at the park

The surrounding environment was very captivating with hills, valleys and plains, beautifully wrapped up, such that one cannot ignore its sceneries that are inspiringly blended. I also learnt that the Yankari national park has another famous attraction- The Wikki warm spring. The spring is particularly prized for its warm water. The spring is available both night and day for excursion and for tourism. It was one of the best experiences I have had in the recent past.

The excursion was an opportunity for me to learn more about the animals in their natural habitat. I saw elephants, crocodiles, hippopotamus and other animals I used to see before on television, face to face.

The excursion was part of the school learning programme. It was a cherished break from the traditional classroom teaching and learning. Indeed travelling is a part of education. The excursion was quite necessary. I took notes of everything we were taught.

We were advised to conduct ourselves in an orderly manner. The manner of the park, Dr. Shehu Bello conducted us to the reception side of the park, and served us a very delicious meal. There, I learnt table manners, especially while eating with important dignitaries and other students.

We were trained on how to swim. Now I can swim without making use of life-jacket. Again, I learnt how to paddle a canoe. Now I can paddle a canoe with a wooden or plastic paddle.

Moreover, the excursion has afforded me the opportunity to know so many states in Nigeria. As a result of the route we took, we passed through Nassarawa, Yobe, Gombe and Adamawa North Eastern part of Nigeria.

Finally, I wish to let you know that the valuable lessons I have learnt from the excursion will live long in my memory and will continue to influence me positively in my future educational pursuit.

Thank you very much for the textbooks you sent to me. Take your studies very seriously. Stay well till l visit you. Bye.

Yours sincerely,

Inyang.
