The Business Club is to be congratulated on the outstanding success of this year\u2019s Market Day, with students delivering a vibrant range of stalls that not only created a wonderful atmosphere on campus but also raised valuable funds for charity. The event was a clear reflection of the creativity, commitment and teamwork of all students involved, and it was fantastic to see the school community come together in support of such a worthwhile cause.<\/p>\n

Special praise must be given to Business Club captains Kimberly Chou<\/strong> (Year 12) and Allegra Chiang<\/strong> (Year 12)\u00a0, whose leadership was instrumental in bringing the initiative to life. Allegra and Kimberly demonstrated exceptional organisation, initiative and enthusiasm throughout the planning and execution of the event. They worked closely with club members to coordinate ideas, support stallholders and ensure the day ran smoothly. Their ability to lead with positivity and purpose inspired others to contribute their best efforts and helped make Market Day such a memorable success.<\/p>\n

Beyond the money raised, Market Day provided students with a valuable opportunity to develop real-world business skills, including teamwork, communication, problem-solving and enterprise. It was a wonderful example of students using their talents to give back to others, and the Business Club should be very proud of what they achieved. Their efforts have made a meaningful difference and set a high standard for future Business Club initiatives.<\/p>\n

‘This week, the Business Club hosted its second annual Market Day, becoming a tremendous success from the moment the stalls opened. What started as a new initiative has quickly become one of the most anticipated events within the Business Club.<\/em><\/p>\n

Throughout this term, the members of the business club have undergone meticulous and thoughtful planning, learning real-world skills in marketing, sales promotions, budgeting, logistics planning and more. Students from Years 7 to 10 demonstrated extraordinary collaboration, creating a range of ideas going beyond bake sales. Stalls sold Churros, s\u2019mores, photobooth drawings, candy bags, squishies and much more.<\/em><\/p>\n

The purpose of Market Day is to give younger students hands-on experience in becoming an entrepreneur, and running their own mini business, from setting prices and interacting with customers, to collaborating under real-world conditions, making this experience extremely rewarding for everyone involved.<\/em><\/p>\n

A huge thank you to every student who organised, sold, and supported on the day!’<\/em><\/p>\n

‘This week, the MLC School campus was buzzing with energy as the Business Club hosted its annual Market Day. The event was a massive success, featuring a vibrant array of student-run stalls that offered warm, toasted s’mores and custom candy bags to popular squishies.<\/em><\/p>\n

Beyond the fun and treats, the event serves as a practical, hands-on learning experience, introducing younger students to the essentials of finance, budgeting, and strategic marketing. Every transaction supported an incredible cause. Thanks to the enthusiasm and generosity of our community, the fundraiser raised almost $1,000 <\/strong>for the Women\u2019s Microfinance Initiative<\/strong>. These funds will go directly toward providing microloans, empowering women to launch their own businesses and build sustainable futures.<\/em><\/p>\n

Thank you to everyone who baked, sold, and bought, you made a real difference!’<\/em><\/p>\n
