Charmingly Situated with much Potential...

On Thursday and Friday Year 5 opened our own estate agent businesses. Currently learning about peruasive writing, we put our persuasive skills to the test as we tried to make the most money selling houses.



After a week of hard work preparing all our business literature including banners, business cards, leaflets, house information, questionaires etc, the big day finally arrived! We were visited by many esteemed clients -all the pupils at Oakwood and many parents. Every client was issued with a specially designed cheque to spend on a house that they had been persuaded to buy.

As you can see from the photos it was a brilliant day and gave us a great opportunity to use our persuasive speaking and listening skills in a formal setting. We definitely have some budding entrepreneurs in the making!
