Can we do MarketDay Again?

When we first began planning our MarketDay, we had no idea that the students would be so motivated and excited!  It was awesome to see all of the supplies pouring into our classrooms and gymnasium yesterday.  I even had a student ask this morning, "Can we do MarketDay again?"  The students really enjoyed the MarketDay last night and felt proud of all they had accomplished.  We will let you know the official totals soon, but so far 6B has counted over $600 that has been raised for Opportunity International!  These funds will be matched by the Canadian government to provide even more microloans for people in developing countries.  Once again, thank you to the students, parents, sponsors, and of course customers who made this event such a success!

"I think it was fun to help those in poverty.  We had fun doing what we were doing.  It was fun to make necklaces and duct tape wallets.  We didn't keep the money we gave it away to help people in Africa." - Liam

"MarketDay was fun because I got to see all the cool things at the other booths, and I got to buy a flower pen and cookies." - Lindsay

"It was nice that we could help people with the money that we earned.  I had lots of fun doing it with friends." - Serena

"It was a lot of fun making and selling the things that we made." - Steven

Enjoy some pictures from the event!
