Counting the takings

The next step of the DVD project was to count the takings from the shop. The children really liked the coins better than the notes ... and there were plenty of coins to count and tabulate. The next job will be for the children to decide what they would like to spend the money on. We might have to wait until the money from the further orders comes in.
we also plan to go to Botany Downs school to take a copy of our DVD to Miss Cotman's class, Room 9.

The shop

The day and the time had arrived ... and it was hard to contain the excitement. The shop keepers assembled for a training session and an official photo, then the shop was checked. The signage was in place, the DVD's and song sheets were ready, the carry bags were in place ... all that was needed was customers. The customers didn't take long to arrive and start queuing for service. What a great job the shop keepers did. Not only did they keep up with sales but they took more orders as well.
