Pinkwell Primary School Enterprise Week October 2024

Pinkwell Primary School Enterprise Week October 2024

We were delighted to support Enterprise Week at Pinkwell Primary School, Hayes, West London last week.
Designed to develop an understanding of business and promote budding entrepreneurs at the local school, Mills Ltd was invited to support ‘’Year 6 pupils’ to give them an overview of how Mills have developed and changed their fourth generation business which was originally established in 1918.

To compete in Pinkwell Primary School Enterprise Week the 10 & 11 year olds were divided into 18 teams of 5 pupils and provided with £40 each, with the winners being the team that made the most profit after repaying their £40 loan.

Jerry and Elliot received different ideas from the pupils, including products, such as Halloween cookies, customised key rings, Pick’n’Mix sweet cones, colour die scrunchies, customised bracelets, and services including car washing, prize scoring football, ring toss and many more.

Armed with marketing, production and selling ideas from the Mills team, the pupils were given 5 days to make their products and develop their services before selling them on the Friday to parents, teachers and their fellow students.

Incredibly after paying back their loans the winning team which sold Halloween and Diwali decorated cup cakes made a profit of £100, with the complete year making over £700 after repayment of the loan! 
An amazing achievement with the £700 profit being put towards the end of year summer school trip.
