Year 5

Entrepreneur Enterprise

This week the children of St Thomas More were given responsibility for using their business acumen to raise money for the school. Both Year 5 classes really engrossed themselves in creating profitable ideas using an initial investment to make profit from their ideas.

Lots of money was raised for the school and we are happy to say that 5M won the friendly competition of raising the most money as an individual class! Some promising future entrepreneurs in the making!
