Yr 3 & 4 Entrepreneurs - Product Creation

Yr 3 & 4 Young Entrepreneurs

As part of the schools Enterprise week years 3 and 4 did some market research to find out what people would want to buy at a farmers market.  The children all pooled their research together and decided on 4 products to make and sell.  Both classes have been working hard, working out their costing and calculating a profit margin to try and raise lots of money.

A big thanks to Mrs U Rajapakse & Mrs C Veysey for helping create our products with the children

Hurry up with the cleaning boys!!!
