From today a lot of our blogging will be handed over to our team from ‘Vegetables R Us’. Today’s guest bloggers are Alexis and Emily who will talk you though today’s happenings!

 

Today we have been promoting our ‘Vegetables R Us’ business. The class was split into four groups. One group is making a power point presentation to explain our business to Adults while the other three groups are making presentations for class 1, class 2 and class 3.

We hope that our presentations will help us to spread the word about our business as well as teach the younger children how they can join in and help us with our business as one day they will be doing what we are doing now!

Our finance team has been preparing our invoices to ensure we get paid by Adnams. After using lots of maths skills to work out our totals (we had time times the cost per kg by the weight of fruit or veg we had grown!) we discovered that we had made a grand total of £604.10 in 2017.

Some of the money we made is profit…you have to knock off the amount we have spent on poly tunnel covers, wood for raised beds and seeds to work this out. Now we can use the money to improve our garden and business and if there is any leftover we may be able to afford to buy something we can all use at school to improve our environment.

We are very proud of what we have achieved in our first, full growing year!!
