House Business Challenge 2019

December 9, 2019

For this year’s House Business Challenge each House had to come up with a novel concept for a new children’s book. This is one of six annual events which determine who will be the eventual winner of the Brewers’ Bowl. The themes this time included teenage mental health, wildlife conservation, aboriginal tales and the Aldenham Attributes. The presentations in front of all Year 9-13 pupils included design work, financial projections and advertising campaigns.

The winning House was McGill’s with a solid presentation, sound business idea and excellent portfolio. Their book ‘Everest’ targeted at 10-13 year olds focused on mental health which highlighted perseverance  through the challenges of life.
