The result was a wide range of businesses and a colourful marketplace enjoyed by students and staff. Stalls ranged from \u2018<em>Mama\u2019s Mac\u2019<\/em> mac &amp; cheese and \u2018<em>Nachobell\u2019 <\/em>nachos, to a variety of sweet treats, drinks and handmade bracelets.<\/p>\n<p>Market Day also serves a broader purpose by supporting a charitable cause. Profits from the event will be donated to <em>Let&#8217;s Build a School<\/em>, a charity that has been improving access to education in a rural Cambodian school since 2013. <em>Let&#8217;s Build a School<\/em> supports a range of school-based programs that enhance opportunities for primary school students. Funds raised from last year&#8217;s Market Day contributed to the creation of a new school vegetable garden, the employment of a new English teacher, and provided funding for Khmer cultural classes and a sports program. This year, students generated more than $5,000 in revenue, with proceeds going towards supporting the ongoing work of <em>Let&#8217;s Build a School<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations to all Year 10 Commerce students on their hard work and contributions to an incredibly successful day.
