PRIMARY SHOPPING EXPERIENCE

On the 14th and 18th January the IV standard students went for a shopping experience to 'More' to have a first hand experience in shopping and buying. It was also to give them an idea of what is available and can be purchased in a store.

There is nothing like training them to shop for tomorrow!
