Yes! IJS Enterprise Programme

Team Cookie Surprise - Winners of the YES programme

Congratulations to Cookie Surprise, the winning team of the IJS Enterprise Programme! The children of Year 6 were tasked to establish their own cookie business over the last 6 weeks, with sessions to assist them everything from costing to marketing.

Joe Birmingham of Falklands College says: “Jane and I have been massively impressed by the true entrepreneurial spirit from the students of Year 6. They really took all of the sessions on board and took to each task with enthusiasm and determination. Well done to all and a massive thank you to the Year 6 teachers, Sheila and Kate, for welcoming us into their classroom and helping to make the programme a reality!”

The programme was created and hosted by FIDC and Falkland College, with The Falkland Islands Company kindly providing sponsorship with all of the ingredients for the baking, space to sell and research their cookies and vouchers for each member of the winning team.
