Year 2 delighted their customers with delightful picture frames, practical tin-can pencil pots and stockings. They made nearly 6,000KSH.
Year 3 represented the eco warriors, making beautiful paper mache plant pots complete with sunflower seeds making nearly 3,000KSH.
Year 4 reworked old cardboard creating characterful gingerbread people, handprint wreaths and also made a herd of loo roll reindeers. They made over 6,500 KSH profit.
Year 5 showed off their versatility as designers making everything from croton nut creations to sugar cookies and punch.They made a whooping 12,900KSH profit!
Year 6 appealed to the ornithophiles repurposing plastic bottles to form bird feeders, tie dye tops and goodie bags. They made over 6,000KSH.
Year 7 were rushed off their feet making personalised beaded name bracelets. They demonstrated their sewing skills making beanie creatures and neck warmers and created a range of beautifully illustrated bookmarks making them nearly 5,000KSH profit.
Year 8 took care of the shoppers' Christmas bauble needs, with handmade woolen pompoms. They also made a series of plastic bottle pencil cases and muticoloured playdough, they turned over a profit of over 5,000KSH.
Congratulations to all our year groups for making a profit and a special shout out to our Y5’s who were our most profitable entrepreneurs!
Having budgeted, designed and created their wares, I’m sure you will agree it was a delight to see the children practicing their sales patter as they worked hard to sell all their items. All children were exposed to and improved on a range of excellent life skills during our Entrepreneurship fortnight.
Thank you to all the parents who supported the children and bought items. Our Year 8 Charity Prefects will now work with FANs to find a local charity who we can donate the profits to.
