The correct answer
Controller class:
public class OpportunityActivities {
    public Id oppId {
       get;
        set;
    }

    public OpportunityActivities () {}

    public List<Opportunity> getoppty() {
        return [   
            select 
                (
                    select ActivityDate,

Hi Russell,

There is no standard way to do this, but you can achieve this by using custom controller in visualforce page.

Create a controller.
 
public  class acctTemplt
{
    public Id accountId {get;set;}
    public List<Opportunity> getopptys()
    {
        List<Opportunity> oppty;
        oppty = [SELECT id, (SELECT ActivityDate,Subject, Status, Description FROM ActivityHistories) FROM Opportunity ORDER BY CreatedDate ASC LIMIT 2];
        return oppty;
    }
}
Component:

Name:OpptyList​
<apex:component controller="acctTemplt" access="global">
    <apex:attribute name="AcctId" type="Id" description="Id of the account" assignTo="{!accountId}"/>
    <table border = "2" cellspacing = "5">
        <tr>
            <td>Opportunity Name</td>
            <td>Opportunity Stage</td>                
        </tr>
        <apex:repeat value="{!opptys.ActivityHistories}" var="cx">
        <tr>
             <tr>
                    <td><a href = "https://ap2.salesforce.com/{!cx.id}">View</a></td>
                    <td>{!cx.ActivityDate}</td>
                    <td>{!cx.Subject}</td>
                    <td>{!cx.Status}</td>
                </tr>         
        </tr>
        </apex:repeat>        
    </table>
</apex:component>
Now use the componect in template. Something like this.
 
<messaging:emailTemplate subject="List of opportunity" recipientType="User" relatedToType="
opportunity">
    <messaging:htmlEmailBody >
    Hi,<br/>
    Below is the list of opportunities for your account {!relatedTo.Name}.<br/><br/>
   <c:OpptyList AcctId="{!relatedTo.Id}" /><br/><br/>
    <b>Regards,</b><br/>
    {!recipient.FirstName}
    </messaging:htmlEmailBody>
</messaging:emailTemplate>

You need make changes as per your requirment.

Thanks.

Hi Prabhat,

Thank you so much for your reply. I'll try this but i got one solution which is working fine for me:

<apex:repeat rows="2" var="cx" value="{!relatedTo.ActivityHistories}">

It is showing last 2 activities in my email template.

Hope if any flaw in this thing you will let me know.

Regards
Russell
