Young Walvis Bay entrepreneurs host food fair

Tomas Capoco
The Junior Walvis Bay City Council organised a food fair on 30 September to bring together all seven of the harbour towns' secondary schools. The municipal grounds were the venue for the event. The young entrepreneurs, who were commerce students in grade 10, were the main focus.

Every one of the seven schools had a free stall. The schools were given the option of selecting one colour to represent their school, and all of the food they sold was of that hue. Because of the diverse colours of each school, the celebration was highly colourful.

The seven schools that participated in the event were Duinesig Secondary School, De Duine Secondary School, Kuisebmund Secondary School, Tutaleni High School, the International School of Walvis Bay and Flamingo Secondary School.

The event provided the entrepreneurs with an excellent learning opportunity. The young entrepreneurs got a taste of the business world by manning their stalls and selling their wares. Each school generated a sizable profit on the commodities sold.

The event was successful, as all learners truly enjoyed engaging with other schools.

"The food fair showed us the diversity of all the secondary schools in Walvis Bay by uniting us as one nation even though we are from different schools. Thank you to the Walvis Bay Junior City Council for a well-put-together food fair," one of the organisers said.
