Would you please, please, please do me a favour?
Vote for the drawing of a sweet little boy from my class. He's called Roy Kunaratnam and deserves a lot of votes for his drawing on the front for a new booklet about sport. You'll find his drawing bottom-left. Our school ( de Vondel) and Roy will be very happy with all your votes. Thank you so much for your help!

Thanks for voting so far. Roy is a boy of 8 years old. His parents came to the Netherlands because of a war in their own country. Although the parents do not speak Dutch so well, Roy does it already quite well. He is very eager to learn and a smart student. He is also very sweet, but does not speak in the classroom. This week we looked in the classroom at the state of the votes every day.
Roy is growing mentally this week!
He talks now and is so beautiful to see how this kid in one week has grown into a child with more selfconfidence, thanks to your votes!!!
Thank you so much to all voters!
Spread the news, you can vote this weekend (up to January 12, 7 pm European time)
