Audio script:
Hello. This is Frank Kane of the town library speaking. I’d like to leave a message for one of the teachers called Mrs Bright. Would you tell her that it will be all right for her class to visit the library next Tuesday at 11 o’clock. We’ll have the videos about wild animals that she wants the kids to see. It takes about half an hour. Thanks.
