This was also an opportunity to combine Thanks giving theme by donating all sells profits to Provincial Civil Affairs Department entrusted CIEO Education Foundation

On the 13th October 2015, Canadian Foreign Language School (Agile) celebrated International Trade’s day by hosting its first flea market sells, with most of its proceeds donated to charity.
The event stretched over 4 days and innocent students with no concept of money managed to learn the idea of trading by comparing the relative prices of object to their selling price.
Over here, we saw high grade students going to the low grade area to sell reduced price products as one of their many technique on display.
High grade students also knew to target teachers and ‘old clients’ in a bid to increase their sales revenue.
16th October was the final day of trades as the school opened its doors for all to come to participate in this charitable flea market sells. Parents brought much home cooked delicacies for sells and it created a frenzy atmosphere.
Through this event, students are able to realize how hard their parents work to earn money and also learn the idea of trading at fair prices.
Many classes also made their own banners and posters to attract attention to help sells.
In creating a realistic environment with fair trading, the school also set-up Commercial Bureau and Tax office. After taxation, all proceeds will be donated in its entirety to charitable organizations.
With the cooperation of all its teachers, parents and students, the first International Trade’s day comes to a close. Student will learn from this experience the basic financial principles, that earning money is no easy task and increase the bonding between families. They also have the opportunity to practice their English and participate in charity events.
