Mid Year Presentations & Oral Awards '06
Thursday 18th May saw around ninety people gathered at Stairs Function Centre, for this years Young Enterprise Business Planning Oral Presentations, and Trade Display Stands. We had four companies from the 8 registered for the year who participated in the evening. The display stands were each of high standard which made judging for the award quite difficult!
Each company delivered their business plans with excellence, they had also produced power point shows to support their presentations.
The four companies competing were, 'Jalar' from Aurora College with their personalised iSockees (to keep your iPod battery warm), 'Hot Dogs' from James Hargest College with doggie jackets, whether your dog is rough and rugged or dainty there is a style to suit, Pantz from Southland Girls High School with their gym pants that keep you dry, while you sweat out your frustrations at the gym after a hard days work, and Dulzura Truffles the gluten free chocolate that everybody loves.
After the presentations, Donna Dentice CEO of Enterprise Trust, talked about the NCEA Credits available through this program and explained how it plays an important part of the education process, inspiring everyone to reach further and strive for their goals.
Donna also explained in detail this years Global Challenge. A very exciting opportunity for students to represent NZ, this year Southland has been very privileged, we have four students going to Auckland to participate with 76 other students from around the country and see if we can win back the Global Challenge. NZ has won three times out of six so far.
