School Enterprise Market Castle Square

I attended four events today in quick succession starting with the School Enterprise Market in Castle Square. 

The school curriculum is seeking to encourage children to develop new skills, amongst them the development of products to sell on as part of a business. Today was the fruition of those efforts as thirty five primary schools set up stalls in the centre of Swansea to sell products as diverse as home grown vegetables, bath bombs, plants, and upcycled Father's Day gifts.


The children have developed business plans, and judges that are prominent in the Swansea business world attended the market day, before visiting the schools so that pupils can pitch their ideas and have their plans evaluated. There will also be a Grand Final in the Brangwyn Hall on 11th July.

I only had an hour to visit all these stalls so concentrated on posing for photographs with them as evidence by the one with Dunvant Primary above.
