ROOM 20 ENTERPRISES:

The pupils in Room 20 are currently undergoing a challenge where they must do the hardest thing - succeed. For they must come up with a business plan that will be put into action on the trade fair day.

The students must take into account expenses, prices, materials, methods and many other things, and so far the ideas have ranged from t-shirts to caricatures to fudge.

With great encouragement from Mike Devoy, the pupils have come up with some brilliant business plans and innovative ideas.

Jason Palmer, Kieran Brooker and I(Thomas Baird) are designing bookmarks for our Enterprise. Our name is JKT products and we are selling our bookmarks at the reasonable price of $1.00 each. Buyers can request their own special design or buy one of our premade designs. If you buy 3 then you will go in a raffle to win a block of dairy milk chocolate or individual entries for the raffle are 50c each. We decided to do bookmarks because they are cheap to make and cheap to buy so it will encourage people to buy them. All of them will be laminated and will have ribbon on the end. We hope to see you their at our trade fair supporting our groups.

A group of children in our class have started a business called Pet Rox. They are selling painted Pet Rox. They have come up with an introduction.
