Preparing for Life!

How would you apply for a job?
What do you want to do with your life?
Do you know how to manage money?

At Oakura school year 7 and 8 are setting up for a Primary Enterprise Programme (PrEP) to get ready for life.We are making toys, games and food for younger pupils. This is teaching us some important skills such as learning how to manage money and cooperate with others. We are also using the money we get to help the survivours in the Philippines to recover from the recent typhoon.

Lachie said "PrEP is getting the year 7 and 8 ready for their future jobs." He also said his group is working well but it has been extremely frustrating at times. Another student manager, Emily, commented that "it has been dramatic and chaotic" but still thought her group was doing well.

We thought that PrEP has been an awesome, challenging and amazing experience and we hope that everyone will love all of the food, toys and games that we've prepared. Don't forget your gold coins on November 25th!
