Welsh love spoons 2. Welsh bracelets Our plan is to sell these items at the Enterprise Fair and to make a profit! The profit will be used for us to buy resources for our class. Our class would like to make enough money to buy board games for wet play times and new sports equipment, we will use these in our learning! All parents and carers are invited to come to the Enterprise Fair on Friday 15th July and buy the items we have made. There will be tea and cake for you to buy too! Every pupil in our class has been asked to invest £2 so we can buy the resources to make our items. Please can pupils bring in their £2 investment by Monday 27th June 2022.
