KS2 PSHE – Personal Finance Education – How to run a Charities Afternoon</p><p> This is an event for the whole school organised and run by a particular class or year group (works well as an annual event).</p><p> The pupils select the charity or charities to be supported by the event.</p><p> Pupils organise a programme of activities that will be used to generate money for their selected charities. In order to develop pupils understanding of profit and loss, each activity should: o Involve an initial cost that needs to be covered by income e.g. cost of prizes, hire of equipment, materials or food. o Be the responsibility of a particular group of pupils – they’ll decide the nature of the activity; the organisation; the running and the tidying away!</p><p> The pupils will need to consider how the activities contribute to the over- all structure of the afternoon i.e. is there an interesting mix of activities or are they too similar? Are some activities too expensive?</p><p> Planning & Preparation – pupils should: o Use a spreadsheet to calculate expenditure and estimate the profit/loss for each activity and the event as a whole. o Organise the marketing of the event – publicity and information. o Organise the practical aspects of the event e.g. booking rooms, equipment, timings, jobs & responsibilities, practicalities e.g. giving change, storing money.</p><p> Conclusion & Plenary – use spreadsheet to calculate profit/loss, discuss the event – what went well, what could have been better. Make a set of recommendations for the next group of children who’ll be running a similar event.</p><p>2 Note to teachers This document was not created by Teachers TV but the author has allowed us to publish it here to be used for educational purposes.
