WHAT THIS QUESTION SPECIFICALLY REQUIRES
The five Ws must all be answerable: WHAT (remedial classes, and in which subjects), WHEN (start date, days AND time), WHERE, WHO (Classes IX and X), and HOW to register.
The question explicitly says "asking them to REGISTER their names for it", so a registration instruction — with whom, and by when — is compulsory. A notice that announces the classes but omits the registration has missed a stated requirement.
Note that AFTER SCHOOL HOURS is in the question, so the time given must actually be after the school day, and it is worth saying so explicitly.
Keep the body near 50 words, use numbered points, stay impersonal, and put your name AND designation at the foot. FORMAT AND MARKS DIVISION: see the Notice and E-mail references in the Writing Formats & Marking (Reference) chapter.
USE THIS AS A MODEL, NOT AS AN ANSWER TO MEMORISE. The question asks for an ORIGINAL composition, and every year examiners identify scripts reproduced from guide books; a memorised answer can be penalised for plagiarism and will in any case read as borrowed. Study this piece for its STRUCTURE — how it opens, how the paragraphs are ordered, where the required tasks are answered, how it ends — and then write your own, about your own school, your own family, your own town. Your own specific detail is worth more marks than anyone else’s polished sentence.
