These P7 pupils were given a challenge today to pick a holiday destination of their choice. They were to source flights and accommodation for their group. There was a buzz in the classroom as destinations like Hawaii, Disneyland Paris, Poland, Ibiza and New York were discussed. At one point Mrs Drummond was asked if she wanted to go to Barbados!
After destinations were chosen, pupils looked for the best deal for foreign currency. They found out the currency of where they were going and decided on how much spending money they would take. Pocket money has certainly increased these days as figures like £10000 were quoted. Superb team work demonstrated today #mathsincontext #financialeducation #whenigrowupiwanttobeatravelagent
