Stage 5 Commerce

As part of their Commerce class, Stage 5 have embarked on a hands-on business venture. The class has taken on running Friday mornings Vinnies Winter Appeal, where they offer a selection of Milos and Bacon & Egg Rolls. This initiative provides students with practical experience in running a business while supporting a worthy cause.

 

As a result of their fantastic efforts, they have made over $500 profit so far this term which will be donated to Vinnies. By the end of the term they will have a Business Plan finalised and will present this at a 'Board Meeting' in their lesson. It's fabulous to see their commitment and excitement to this project.
