The Karibib Private School intends to host an Entrepreneurship day with the theme “Turning Entrepreneurship into Marketing”.

The learners have a choice of working with partners or alone. This project enables the learners to understand and practice Entrepreneurship principles (an issue which has become the talk of the nation). They will be planning their enterprise (little business) with the aid of the entrepreneurship day workbook (a mini business plan).

They are expected to:

• produce a sound business plan

• demonstrate how their idea really can make money

• demonstrate how their idea can benefit society and their immediate community

• communicate and present their business idea on the 30 September 2006, using their skills to simplify, by implementing their idea (erecting a stall)

A floating trophy plus cash prizes will be awarded to the individuals with the most outstanding achievement during the exhibition day.

The prizes are as follows:

Entrepreneur of the day - N$500 + trophy + medal
Product/Service of the day - N$500 + medal
Arts and Craft - N$500 + medal
Most professional and viable business plan - N$500 + medal
