P7 and P6 Business Sales Pitches!

Yesterday afternoon, the P7’s and P6’s  presented their sales pitches to Mr McGregor. They managed to control their nerves and presented with confidence. Everybody played their part and some groups made PowerPoints and Powtoons to help support their presentation. A lot of hard work has hopefully paid off! They can’t wait to find out tomorrow if their business idea has been invested in…

P7 and 6’s Business Enterprise off to a flying start!

P7 and 6’s are extremely excited to start their  Business Enterprise. This will be running until early December. So far the children have been refreshing their knowledge of the difference between a skill and quality and discussing which ones in particular will be vital to run a successful business.

So far all pupils have been working hard, organising their business groups, choosing a business name and creating a company logo. We also created these logos online and will share with you soon.

On Monday we were lucky enough to have four former pupils visit us from Bathgate Academy. They gave us some great advice and answered our many questions! We loved having them visit us and wish we could have them help every week.

Attached is an information page for any parents looking for more information on how the Business Enterprise works. business-enterprise-information

Sharing information with you by e-mail

As part of our developments in school to communicate as effectively as possible with you we will be needing an e-mail address.

We can then send newsletters etc straight to your phones/tablets which will be much more helpful for you.

Just hand in an e-mail address through your child or e-mail the school e-mail ( wlboghall-ps@westlothian.org.uk)

Thanks for your support.
