The Dragons Come To Visit

As part of the Junior Entrepreneur Programme, three local entrepreneurs visited our fifth class students to listen to the children’s pitch for the card game they are planning to develop and produce. The entrepreneurs were Breda White, P.J. Holmes and Denis O Malley.

The children rose to the occasion and presented their pitch very well. The Dragons were very impressed with the children’s card game idea and the work completed by them to date.

Well done to the boys and girls for all their hard work. We would like to thank the Dragons for their time today. It was a valuable learning experience for the boys and girls in fifth class.
