Grow a Pound week

Grow a Pound

This week year 5 and 6 became entrepreneurs and created their own business’. After getting into groups the children bought in a pound each and devised their own products to sell. They needed to work out the cost of all the resources, market their ideas and work out the profit they may make. The final steps were to make their product and then set up their stall.

The culmination of this event was the chance for all the other year groups to come and purchase the range of goods on offer. These included fidget toys, cupcakes, lemonade and bracelets. The three yr 5 6 classes were fantastic all week and showed themselves to be excellent potential businessmen and woman as they raised a grand total of £172. The children will be voting on the charity they want to choose to donate the profits to, with a little left over as a treat for the classes. Well done Year 5 and 6!
