Enterprise at Highclare School
20 Jul 2016
Highclare Junior School pupils at Highcare St Paul’s have been putting their business skills to good use during their Enterprise Day on Friday 10th June.
Their initiatives have included setting up small businesses in groups and during the day they were able to market their skills and businesses to pupils, staff and parents.
The range of things included : ‘Popping Stationery’, ‘Smoothies 4 U’, ‘Craft and Snack Disney Shack’, ‘Hampers R Us’, & ‘ Fantasy Football’. Additionally, Charlotte Hodivala, the new Mayor of Sutton popped in during the afternoon for afternoon tea and to chat to the children and parents.
Mrs Polly Bennett, Head of Junior Schools at Highclare, said “ This was a great initiative by the children themselves and they showed some excellent entrepreneurial choices in achieving a profit, which will go to our school charity, The African Space Trust. It was lovely to see the new Mayor during the afternoon and we hope that she has spotted some budding new business talent for the future !”
