Pupils put their business acumen to the test at a school’s summer fair.

Richmond, a Lilac Sky Academy in Nursery Close, Sheerness, hosted the end of year bash on Friday which raise £660 for the school.

The PTA organised stalls and refreshments while the day also marked the end of the pupil’s enterprise week.

The children were set a challenge at the start of the week to come up with their own business. This included coming up with a business plan and figuring how much pretend money they needed to borrow from the bank of Richmond.

Some of the products and service they came up with included decorated cakes, undersea world photos, beat the goalie competition and lucky dip popcorn – where customers could bought packets of various flavours, such as sweet and chilli and lime, without knowing what they were.

There was also an arena with singing and performances by the school’s dance club and winners of its talent contest, bouncy castle and a stand from the RNLI lifeguards.

Principal Jacqui Lockwood said: “It was a very successful event which was extremely well supported by parents and carers with lots of fun activities that were enjoyed by all and the children learned a lot about running their own business in a fun and exciting way.”
