Young Enterprise - P7's Crazy Carnival Sale Day
26th May 2023
Sale day for Primary 7's Crazy Carnival business took place today and the excitement was electric!
The Primary 7 pupils set up their four stalls in the school hall, selling loombands, keychains, popcorn and three different flavours of chocipops. Sales were great and everyone had a brilliant time buying and selling.
This is the first Young Enterprise day in MQP and based on the success of today, it most certainly won't be the last. The Primary 7 pupils have learnt so much from this Business Beginnings programme which employs a whole school approach to the curriculum delivery of enterprise skills and financial education. We certainly have a few budding entrepreneurs amongst us. Watch out Lord Sugar!
With the profits, the Primary 7 children gave away a 10% Legacy Donation. This will contribute to the start up capital needed to get next year’s Primary 7 business off the ground. The remainder of the profit will be used to pay for a bus to transport the Primary 7 supports to the girl’s All County football final at St. Louis’ GS on 7 June.
Quotes from the Primary 7 class:
" I never thought making a business could be so much fun!"
" All our hard work was worth it!"
"Calculating our profit was a fun way to do maths!"
"Team work really does make the dream work!"
