Young Entrepreneurs in 5th Class!

27/6/2018

5th Class girls were very fortunate to participate in Bizworld again this year.
BizWorld Ireland works with schools throughout the country to deliver tailored enterprise workshops for 10- to 13-year-olds.Instilling an entrepreneurial spirit in children from a young age, and developing their awareness of financial management, means they are equipped to become financially responsible members of society. Because BizWorld Ireland workshops are delivered in fun and creative ways, they also make children excited at the prospect of maybe one day establishing their own business. At BizWorld Ireland, the aim is to provide children with the tools and inspiration to someday become employers themselves.The skills children develop in BizWorld Ireland workshops are the most sought-after skills in the workforce today: creativity, collaboration, communication, teamwork, negotiation.
The 5th Class girls' business ideas included a two-story kennel for dogs, a spray to wash away annoying sand at the beach, a very lightweight school bag,a laptop/ipad combined and a subject book for secondary school (all subjects in one book). These were probably two of the most educational days that the children experienced in school this year!
