The Young Apprentice (Yr5/6)
Over the last couple of weeks, Y5/6 children have been working in groups, preparing for out Young Apprentice Competition! Every group was given £10 to spend. The children ordered their stock from school catalogues, buying items such as rubbers, skipping ropes, balloons and whistles to sell on their stalls. Children were invited to come and shop! The sale was an enormous success. In total the children made a profit of £158.33. The winning team made a profit of £35.84. This was a very successful project – lots of fun and a great learning experience!
