Young enterprise gave students the opportunity to run their own business for 6 months in school. 6 senior pupils from St Aidan’s took on the challenge and are now starting their own company called Megamind. They’re developing a colouring and activity book called ‘Unplugged’ to promote mindfulness.
Before they could start, they had to pay their registration fee. On November 20th they ran a bake sale to raise the money to develop unplugged. The bake sale raised over £100. Megamind has now started to develop unplugged and is on the way to be in print before December.
Daria Orlicka, managing and sales director of Megamind, said “As part of a team we chose to raise money by doing a bake sale at school. We raised enough money to proceed with our plans, which is the making of our book unplugged. We are all excited since this is just the beginning”
