Harvest Hill Homeschool Co-op wrapped up their Junior Achievement financial literacy class called “A Business of Our Own” this past week. In this class 9 to 14 year old's were learning the basics of how to write a business plan. They were able to apply these skills to their own businesses and create products and market them on Sunday, April 12 at Evangelical Mission Church in Roblin.
There were 27 vendors featuring bird feeders, perogies, herb gardens, key chains, sandwiches, lemonade, baking, sewing projects, and woodworking projects. Literally something for everyone!
Over 100 people came to support the young entrepreneurs and it was a huge success! The students were then able to determine their net profits and through studying God's word as a class it has created an opportunity
for the students to learn how to manage their money through a biblical lens. There were students from Roblin, Russell, Binscarth and Rhein, SK who participated in the “A Business of Our Own” class.
