We had to negotiate with one of our enterprise teams to purchase tickets slightly cheaper than there actual price as this showed we were also supporting them as well as getting a good deal for our team to use as one of our prizes. We used our powers of persuasion to influence people to come and have a go on the day.

Negotiating and Influencing

Great teamwork was the key to our event being a great success. We communicated well throughout our challenge which helped us overcome any barriers. With good organisation, set responsibilities and positive attitudes our goals were all achievable.

Effective Communication - Advertisement

We took a risk having our event on the same the day as ‘Children in Need’ as we knew we were asking a lot of people to support both worthy charities. The flip side was we knew it would just add to the fun of the day if we could pull it off all on the same day.

Taking a Risk

Creativity and Innovation

We were creative and had to diced which event to design our poster to advertise the event. We knew how sporty our school are an knew this was a great idea. We had to solve lots of problems because we arranged this on the same day as “Children in Need”. We all had a sparkle in our eye and knew this idea would work.

Positive AttitudeAlthough our event fell on the same day as “Children in Need” we had to remain positive that we could still make the event a success.

Our main concern was that as both event were for such worthy charities people might not have the money to support both charities so near to Christmas.

Remaining a positive working team, we advertised well and made our event a great success.

InitiativeWe wanted to create a sporting challenge that would appeal to a wider ordinance rather than just the football mad boys in our school. After surveying the playground at lunchtime we realized that many children enjoyed trying to score a basket in our basketball rings. From this we bounced a few ideas around between ourselves and the other pupils and came up with our event.

Problem SolvingWe came across a few problems while organising our event, timing the event in order to prevent disruption to the rest of the school was a obstacle that took some over coming. With effective communication and listen skills we were able to work out solutions that everyone agreed with.

Making Ethical DecisionsWe had to make sure that our event was accessible to everyone with fair outcomes and nobody being at an advantage or disadvantage.

Financial LiteracyWe used our financial literacy to help us decided how and what we were going to use our money for. We also had to convince people it was a great opportunity to not only support the charity with a good chance of winning a fantastic prize. Using our knowledge and working out our possible targets we had to price our event accordingly so that as many people took part as possible. In total we raised £70.55 and are very proud of our achievements.
