Introducing Entrepreneurial Education (EE)!

We are thrilled to introduce Entrepreneurial Education (EE) to our Year 5 and 6 students! EE will encompass two highly valued programs incorporated into the learning and teaching curriculum over the course of the year. These programs will be co-taught by Mrs Fiona Hayward and Mrs Alfina Jackson.

For Semester 1, we will be launching STEM MAD. Traditionally this program has been offered as a lunch club but due to the high quality learning and level of skills gained by students who have previously participated in this, we have decided to include this in our curriculum. STEM MAD engages students in hands-on, project-based learning experiences that integrate Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) with entrepreneurial thinking. Students will be challenged to identify real-world problems and develop innovative solutions, encouraging them to think critically and creatively while applying their STEM knowledge. STEM MAD will nurture their problem-solving abilities and foster a spirit of innovation.  

Building on the foundation laid in Semester 1, we will be introducing $20 Boss in Semester 2. This program will empower students to take their ideas to the next level by giving them a small seed fund ($20) to start their own micro-business. They will learn about all aspects of running a business, from developing a business plan, pitching their ideas and marketing their product or service. $20 Boss provides a real-world, hands-on experience in entrepreneurship, allowing students to learn by doing and develop valuable skills in financial literacy, communication, and teamwork.

We are excited about the opportunities these programs will offer our students and look forward to sharing their progress with you throughout the year!
