Announcement
An announcement means something that someone says officially,
giving information about something, or when someone announces
something.
• An announcement should be direct and concise. Your reader or
listener will be able to understand the information quickly and can refer
back to it easily.
• Present your information in a plain and complete way, so your reader
will understand you the first time (and not ask questions later).
• If the news you are announcing is bad, write it in a direct statement.
Add a message of understanding and optimism to your
announcement, in a respectful tone.
Announcement
One of the example of announcement is a school
announcement.
A school announcement usually contains:
• The topic of the announcement (what)
• Day/ date, place/ venue (when, where)
• What/ how to do
• An emphasis on paying attention to the the information
• Closing and thanking
