P4 Ulster Bank Thrive Workshop

17th Jun 2026
Today P4 had two visitors from the Ulster Bank who lead our 'Thrive' workshop, aiming to teach children about finances. Mrs. McGothigan and Claude taught us about the importance of being sensible with our money by saving and budgeting. We set up our own smoothie shop by choosing the items we needed to run it, using coins to pay for the items and then doing some calculations to figure out the best price to sell our smoothies at, allowing us to make a reasonable profit. It was great fun and had us thinking hard!
