Food Fusion market day at Rostrata Primary year 7 with Claire Davenhall and Nikki Barnett
Session 8DATE 4.7.25 90-minute session in the classroom:Warm Up (one photo)
| Today is our Food Fusion market day, we started by making our chefs hats and setting up our tables. |
| We invited our buddies, parents, school leadership to come and survey our food items before spending our creative ST tokens on food items. They had to practice their sales pitch and try to persuade the customers into buying their produce, it was very busy and they did a great job. It was interesting to hear their observations and evaluation after the market had finished and most of the students had sold out! They were able to do some quick mental arithmetic to work out their profit and loss. Nikki was careful to say that on this day… These are the results, but the market changes quickly. So white the sweet items sold faster than the savoury, most said they would increase their prices next time to make more profit. |

| Since they had spent their tokens it was time to reflect on what they would do differently next time, some would make their food items more attractive, others would choose different ingredients, some would execute their creations with more detail. Some would donate their money to cats! |
(refer back to your original Term Plan document, discuss successes, explore challenges and make changes.)
