Orchard students take leading roles in Young Enterprise group.
Shiplake College's Young Enterprise group began in September 2013 as a way of allowing students the opportunity to work as a business where they can brainstorm ideas, create a product and sell it to the public. A number of Orchard Year 12 students are part of the group and each one has a specific responsibility to fulfill:
Harry Wiggins - Finance Director
The group's first product was the Lumijar, which went on sale just before Christmas and the group had some success with sales figures.
Finance Director Harry Wiggins has this to say on the future of the group:
"We are looking to create a new product later in the year; hopefully around March. We are not sure what it will be yet but we are looking for something that will generate some profit for all of us as we are all investors.

The ideal profit would be in the £150 – £200 range. We still have some Lumijars to sell and there are plans to visit trade fairs in March in Stratford
and North Oxford."
YE members including Harry Chapples, Will Janes and George Lawley get to grips with another tricky business decision.
George, Harry and Harry Wiggins show off the Lumijars with Harry Marsden.
