Call For Volunteers! - Making Bouquets of Roses (for a Principles of Accounts Project)

Dear PSG parents,

We have received a call for assistance for a POA (Principles of Accounts) project, please refer to Mr Tuang's email below which is self-explanatory.

If you have the expertise and the skills that are called for, ie, wrapping the roses into bouquets of 3, 9, 10 or 12 depending on the orders received by the boys, and you can spare the time and effort to help them out, please contact me on my mobile, or let me know asap via email, chan_may_ping@yahoo.com, and we will link you up with the respective teachers / boys to work out details together.

The boys have to order the roses asap by next Monday 06 Feb before the prices escalate, but they have to know for sure that they have help for professional wrapping to fulfil whatever orders they manage to get. The teachers / boys will source the materials which you require.

It will be good if you can confirm your availability and respond by tomorrow at the latest? The boys have turned to us for help now as they could not get the expertise from their teachers or parents. If we really have no such resource available amongst us, the boys will then have to discontinue with the project.

If you have the expertise and the time, this is a great opportunity to help out - the boys get practical experience and you have done your part to help the needy boys in the school's Financial Assistance Programme.

Thank you.
 
Yours truly,
Chan May Ping

Dear Mdm

I am Tuang, the POA teacher in St. Gabriel's. We would like to seek the help and support of you and the PSG in the school's Sec 3 Project work. The details are as follows:

Target group: Sec 3 POA students

Project: Sales of Chocolates and Roses during Friendship Week (Valentine's Day) where all proceeds go to the school FAP

Objectives:

1. provide a platform for students to develop entrepreneurship skill 

2. to develop their social skills through communication

3. character development through this service learning project

 Description of the project:

The students wll be divided into two main groups and form two 'companies', one selling roses while the other chocolates. Students were given the chance to make their own decision as to which group they will want to join.  For each company, they are to decide and form into the following departments

(1) President

(2) Vice-President

(3) Marketing department

(4) Sales department

(5) Purchases department

(6) Accounting department

 Students will have to perform tasks according to the department they are attached, such as taking and managing orders, deciding on selling price, deciding on quantity to purchase, what promotion strategies to use and how to prepare and manage the finance. With these in mind, we hope that our boys could learn some lifeskills to prepare them for the future.  

 Help from PSG needed

We would like to get the help and support from the PSG in helping us to wrap up the roses into bouquet on the 13 or 14 Feb, as both the teachers and studets do not have the expertise and skills. The teachers will help to order the roses and get all materials ready.  

We would appreciate if we could get a reply from the PSG side as soon as possible so that order of roses can be made soon. Thank you for your strong support in advance.

Regards
