Default Looking for penpals

Hello everybody,
I would like to get a group of penpals for my students (in Spain). They are teens, 15 year-old boys and girls.
I've got 9 students and their writing is awful, and I think that penpals using snail-mail could be a good idea to improve their writing skills.
The idea is writing a letter monthly, more or less, and to avoid problems all the letters should leave from the language school and be received at the language school, but using envelope, stamp, the name of the student as addressee and so on (in spite of using all of them the same address).
The teacher should correct the letters before sending them and check they don't give any personal information details, such as address, telephone number, etc, otherwise on the first letter they would get the e-mail address and maybe we could have problems with their parents.

My students don't know anything about it but I think they would like the idea.

So if anyone is interested...
Thanks
