This week everyone will be busy developing their own class businesses and producing items to sell at our fabulous Enterprise fair on Friday. Children will be learning the principles of making a profit and the ethics of fair trade.
There may well be a bit of a red nose theme in some classes as all the money raised will be going to Comic Relief.
Comic Relief describes its mission as bringing about 'positive change through the power of entertainment'. It was established in 1985, and since then has helped tackle poverty and social injustice at home and abroad by :
- inspiring people across the country to join in with fundraising
- raising more than £425 million
- making over 6000 grants in the UK
- making over 1700 grants internationally.
The charity promises that for every pound it gets directly from the public, the same amount will go directly to projects helping the poorest and most disadvantaged people.
