Casebrook Market Day a Hit!

Our market day today was a huge success. Both in the amount of money groups made but also in the amount of learning that took place in regards to financial literacy and the whole logistical operation involved for each group

Thanks very much for all the time parents put in with students to help them be prepared. They were all buzzing (partly sugar over-dose not doubt) after the market and it was a great way to end the term. It was great to see so many family members of our class down at school today.

Overall our class made a profit of $500 which means investors will see a full return in most cases! All groups sold out (or nearly sold out) of product and handled themselves brilliantly.

Warm Fuzzie Day

Emily talks about Warm Fuzzie day...

On Friday 20 September I did a Warm Fuzzie day for my Casebrook Challenge. Here is how it works: There is a game and an all day box. The game is called Pay it Forward, and here is how you play. Everyone stands in a massive circle, and then pick a person to start.

 The selected person pays a compliment to the person to their right and so on until you come back to the start, and then turn around to go back the other way. If there is both genders try and mix them up as much as possible.

 The all day box is a shoebox with no lid, and everybody who played Pay it Forward puts in two compliments. During the day when you feel down in the dumps, take out a compliment. Have a lot of fun :)
