Jibboo rolls along

Today's Jibboo was another showcase of creativity, teamwork and entrepreneurship.  Here are some photos of the ingenuity that has risen out of our 'you must free-to-you materials' in your businesses.

This business is selling rocks that the customer paints and designs their own 'Pet Rock.'

Nicole's brought along some home grown apples for apple bobbing. Katie is getting stuck in as a willing customer.

 Mac and Cameron's business, a long running and popular entertainment option during Jibboo, involves hitting targets with a Nerf gun (1 of them has an awesome magazine that shoots multiple Nerf bullets) and the winning total for the day wins $20 Snidges.

I am no longer surprised at the ideas that you all come up with, and the way you are all negotiating and working so well with others! Keep it up, everybody.

Our First Jibboo Market Day!

Phew! We had our first Market Day for Jibboo this week and it was fantastic. It was great to see so many creative ideas for businesses and the students made a wide variety of goods and services to sell to their class mates.

This year I (The Mayor) decided to make it a little more challenging by banning products made from New Zealand dollars. This means they have to use recycled or free products made from home. Well done, everyone. You've accepted the challenge and done amazingly well!
