Koonung Day

Koonung Day - Friday 13 September

Koonung Day 2019 is fast approaching and this year's event promises to be an exciting celebration of all things Koonung. The whole day will be dedicated to appreciating our community and school, boasting a large selection of stalls, events and performances from students and staff. 

I'd also like to put the call out to any families who might offer some support to the day.  For instance, I'd love to have a coffee van on site or some fabulous, speciality events. If you have an idea or could offer something please contact me at phodkinson@koonung.vic.edu.au. 

Put the Friday 13 September in your diary and prepare for an amazing Koonung Day in 2019.

Year 11 Business Management – Koonung Day stalls

 Over the past few weeks the students in the year 11 Business Management classes have working in groups to carefully prepare a variety of stalls. There will be plenty of options for students and staff to choose from on Koonung Day when they will all open for the first time.

Planning has involved determining what product or service to offer, naming the business, developing a logo/slogan, choosing the best venue to sell from, when to sell (recess/lunch/other) as well as advertising and marketing all being part of a comprehensive Business Plan

Stall – and products

De Ja Brew – variety of drinks

Egg and Bacon rolls

Sausage Fest - sausage sizzle

Fairy Floss

Pizza

Ice Screamo

Can Hub - games for a free drink

Little Dumplings

Scoop - Cookie Dough and cones

Bubble tea

Muffin House - Muffins and Brownies

Kreme Krispy - Donuts

Smash Bros - video game

Students had to research and purchase products themselves but will be reimbursed through what they make in sales. Any profits will be donated as a cohort to a student selected charity at the end of the task.

As time approaches they are becoming quite excited in anticipation. It is a great learning task – concept, planning to execution.

We are sure they will enjoy the day and the competition as to which stall makes the most profits.
