Year 3 Enterprise Week -  Monty Fair!

Shane Gill • Jun 10, 2019

Roll up! Roll up! Will you be a winner?

As part of Enterprise Week, year 3 have discussed how we could turn a profit on our £30 start up fund. We spent time discussing things that we could make or buy and how we could present and sell them to make a quick quid!

Because we had so many fantastic ideas, we decided to create a small fair to allow as many of these ideas to be put into practise! The fair is open to the whole school (EYFS - YR6) and will be £1 entry. In return for the entry fee, the children will receive 5 tickets to be used at the stalls, a refreshment and a biscuit. If the children would like to buy more tickets, they will be available at 10p per ticket.

What you need to know;

Date: 14th June.
Where : School playground or sports hall (TBC weather dependent).
What: school fair with a range of fun and exciting activities that will be lead by the pupils in year 3.
Who: year 3
Why: To think about the value of money within an engaging and real life context. The profit that is made will be used to fund a treat for the year group.





For only 20p a go, we are currently running two competitions as part of our Enterprise week project.

The first competition is trying to guess the amount of sweets in the jar. The person who guesses the correct amount, or the person who guesses closest to the correct amount, will win the jar of sweets.

Can you guess the name of our adorable bear? The pupils have come up with 100 possible names for the bear. All you need to do is pick the right name to win in it.

Both competitions can be found at the front reception, or you can grab Mr Gill, Miss Gowing or Mr Inglis after school everyday this week!

Good luck and have fun!

A new IWF (Internet Watch Foundation) safety campaign aims to help parents have conversations with their children about keeping their 'door' closed to child sexual abusers. The campaign includes a booklet for parents, explaining the risks, explaining why children are vulnerable, and suggests practice steps that parents can take. The mnemonic used in the campaign is TALK: TALK to your child about online sexual abuse. Start the conversation – and listen to their concerns. AGREE ground rules about the way you use technology as a family. LEARN about the platforms and apps your child loves. Take an interest in their online life. KNOW how to use tools, apps and settings that can help to keep your child safe online. https://talk.iwf.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/A-guide-for-parents-and-carers-v7.pd f
