this means business!!!!!
   
so in T.Y one of the things we do is set up a company, this program is called mini company is run the length and breath of the  country. This program is all about getting young people getting involved in business and enterprises,  taking responsibility, coming up with ideas and putting these  ideas into practice and making them a reality. With in our classes we chose our groups and for a few weeks we brain storm, plan and finally come up with a product that we can make and sell. There was a lot to do before we even could started making and selling the products. Our idea was to make Santa sledges out of chocolate and sweets. The idea was really good but we now had to make it happen. The first step was to do the  marked research, pricing and see how much we would all have to give in to get the company stared. Then we went to a whole salers and bought all the produce.  After that we had to start production. Now although this may seems like a rather easy job you would be very wrong to believe that!!!! In our mini company class we put together the first stages of the sledges and we made about 40 and we all taught  were doing great and that it would take no time at all to put the finishing touches on HOWEVER  we taught very very very wrong as it took hours to finish them off. But we got the first patch finished and we were very relived. We then had to ask permission from our principal to sell in the school on Fridays and to put up the posters around the school. So far we have gotten loads of orders from people and we can barley keep up with all the orders we have. We are all very excited to be selling and to have the business up and running. Displaying image.jpeg
