Enterprise Week


The last week of term was the whole school's Enterprise week.  We had to learn about the world of work, making a profit, costing our projects, giving service to our customers, etc. - the list is endless!  Each class did different things and please see each class blog for photos and more information.  I gave each £50 as a start up cost.

The week culminated in a whole school mixed market from 3pm to 4pm where we sold our wares.

Class 1 made shortbread and lemon drizzle cake (I speak from experience that they were beautiful and tasty!) and they potted plants and vegetables to sell.  They are still counting their profits!

Class 2 operated a hand car washing service and PitStop café.  A profit of £311 was raised!

Class 3 worked in groups to produce different things from cakes to calendars to recipe books to making pancakes and handmade mini cushions and selling plants.  They raised £538 profit!

Thank you parents for supporting us in this - it was a fabulous week but we couldn't have done it without your support (and cash!).
