Pupils in 6th class were given a 2 day workshop in business skills by the Bank of Ireland last October. The aim of the workshop was to teach them about how to run a company. Each group had to create a new product and present in”Dragons’ Den” style.
One group from our 6th class were chosen as the Regional winners with their product, The Cattle Protector.
They were invited to present their idea at the Enterprise Town weekend, where they met Daithí O Sé. A group from 5th class were also awarded with a prize at this event also, Eabha, Roisin and Katie. They created an information leaflet on using the Internet wisely.
The 6th class group were invited to present their idea in Mary Immaculate College on May 18th. Here they met other regional winners and competed for a place in the National finals. Sadly the competition was strong and they did not get a place in the finals. Well done to Sean, Clement,Christian,James and Sean.
