Dear Mr Ransley

For the last few weeks, Room 42 has been having problems with our internet, and it is really frustrating! We normally start having problems the first thing in the morning when the bell goes. 

We have problems getting into our Email, Blogs, and our Google Drive!

There are about 15 people every morning that are having these problems. When we try to open our Gmail, and the other Apps, it just won't load and it comes up with a square and a dinosaur saying "Reload page"

We would appreciate it if you could fix this problem because it is interrupting our learning!

ways you could  fix this.

- Get a new modem

- Different Wifi brand

Thank you

Yours Sincerely

Marijke Hattingh
