The Apprentice!

The grade 8s in 8G and 7s and 8s in 8/7H have been hard at work within a business and media unit, learning about the world of advertising, collaboration, and business and math skills. 

As part of this unit, the grade 7s and 8s were 'hired' by certain project managers for one of four companies within the class. The groups worked together to develop a product for the school, while earning start up money for their business through a variety of history, group work, math, and media-related challenges.

Wednesday, December 4th and Thursday, December 12th are the sell dates of these products! Prices will range from 50 cents to $2, and there will also be raffle prizes, music, and lots of fun! Remember your change! These products will only be on sale for one day only, at first lunch.

The products being sold on Wednesday, December 4th by 8G are:
Donut Snowballs or Donut Snowmen; The Best Brownies; Lemonade with Candy Ice Cubes; and Fox-designed Cake Pops.

The products being sold on Thursday, December 12th by 8/7H are:
Chocolatey Snowball Twists; Cinnamon Buns; Sweet Puffs; and Sugar Sticks

The companies that earn the most money get to be the Apprentices to Mr. Gariepy and Mr. Harvey, and get to run the class (within reason!) for the day.

All the money raised will go towards Grade 8 trips and Graduation!!! Please help support the Grade 8s, and get something great in return!
