New Monument Pupils Learn About Business World

Thirty year 6 children from New Monument Primary School took part in a SATRO Junior Business Game on Tuesday 23rd October.

The pupils had a fantastic day and got so much out of the experience. In fact, their response of 100% positive feedback was a first this year! One pupil’s quote was particularly pertinent and seems to cover all the objectives…

"I learned to work as team without arguing. Importantly, how to make bookmarks. Sharing ideas with other people. I learned how it was like working in a company (I enjoyed it). When I am going to be over 18 I am going to be a purchasing manager."
A teacher agreed with the children's take on the day..
"A wonderful day of learning; social skills, entrepreneurial skills, presentional skills all developed.  Fantastic to see all the children so embracing of their roles."
The school were so impressed with the day and the pupils' positive experience that they are creating a display to show off their presentations and products!
