This short article summarises my reasons for writing a short \LaTeX\ document to act as a template for scientific reports. This document was used as a basis of practical session with Masters students who wished to learn to use \LaTeX\ for their reports. The outcome was quite successful in that many more students are now using \LaTeX for their reports, often using the document as a template.
