CIEO Special Program — International Trade Fair

International Trade Fair 

In order to help our students learn about finance, we set up a fair and let them tend to the buying and selling processes while allowing them to experience helping others in need. Students had to speak English during the buying and selling, which was a good chance for them to practice.

On the first day of the fair, students set up their shops in classrooms and then could go to different classes to sell or buy the items on offer. In order to earn money to help people in need, students thought of special ideas to sell their products. They made handicrafts and stocked up with animals, lamps and snacks. Students were excited during the fair and some sweet students even bought gifts for their parents to show their gratitude.

In the afternoon the trade fair began as students and parents prepared to sell products from their own shops. We also set a donating zone, saving bank and auction to help to raise funds.

Teachers, students and parents happily lost track of time until, at sunset, the fair came to an end. Parents’ feedback called it a great activity with students learning how to conduct business and discovering how difficult it is to earn money while they used money raised to help others.  One parent said, “It was very meaningful. I really look forward for next trade fair. I believe our kids can learn more and grow more mature through this activity. ”

We established a Trade and Industry Department and Taxation Office for the fair and donated the money we raised to the CIEO Jiayou Foundation to help children in need. Through this activity, students know that together we can make things better; we can help other kids have a happier childhood.
