WRED | Secondary Schools Program

The activities of the day are focused on enterprise and entrepreneurship through which students explore their own interests and capabilities and gain an appreciation that personal and financial success can come from them developing their own business.

The Secondary Program provides students with a real insight into social enterprise and entrepreneurship through successful young social entrepreneurs as presenters sharing their stories explaining how they have gone about achieving their success and making a difference to social problems. Through this interaction, students are stimulated to consider options, ideas and career paths to follow. This compliments the work being done by schools and individual students in pursing enterprise education.
