5th class are currently doing JEP (Junior Entrepreneur Programme). JEP is a programme that encourages students to become entrepreneurs and come up with a business idea. We spent time working in groups and came up with lots of ideas for products to sell.
We then took part in the Meet the Dragons event. An entrepreneur called Brian McGovern came and judged our projects alongside Ms Roche, Ms Keane and Mr Foley. We had lots of fun and the winner was ‘Figet Pencils’🏆
We started to do some market research. We went around to different classes, teachers and students with a survey of questions.
We are currently makng the figet pencils and are taking orders. A Figet Pencil costs €1.50
