Elizabeth Oxley – East Herrington Primary - May 2023

“Very informative sessions which kept all the children engaged. The activities are well planned and have a good mixture of games/hands on activities and written recording. The children enjoyed the sessions and could explain what they had learnt”

Keith Newton – East Herrington Primary – May 2023

“Lovely activity to get children thinking of ways to raise money. Children were engaged and excited to think of their own ideas. Children were supported and challenged to work in groups and make compromises – something that children find difficult. Lots of opportunities to share ideas/ work and celebrate success of others. Thank you very much!”

Debra Houghton – Hetton Lyons Primary- May 2023

“The workshop was excellent at developing vocabulary such as ‘emigrate,’ ‘urban’, ‘prospects’ and ‘apprenticeship’. The workshop was good for getting children to work as a team and problem solve. Children really enjoyed playing the cost-of-living game. It helped them learn about balancing budgets and items that they may have to pay for. It was good for developing maths skill.”

Alex Ridley – Horton Grange Primary School – November 2022

“I think that real world content like this is incredibly important for children to understand in order to help them make better choices in the future. The cost-of-living game adds great context to real world struggles in a way that is engaging and informative. Thank you.”

A Miller – Benton Park Primary School – September 2022

“Y$ Have thoroughly enjoyed their enterprise day. They have been engaged when thinking about important topics such as the cost of living. They were able to work in teams to create business ideas which they loved – it gave them a sense of independence and responsibility. I was impressed by the board game and children learned a lot about money and where it is spent. The session was informative and enjoyable. Thank you!”
