Enrichment Day 14/7/08 Challenge

Dear Year 10,

Your ‘Apprentice’ style task is as follows:-

You are to devise a range of kit for the 2012 GB Olympic Team. In your groups of four you must decide on the following roles:- (i) Team leader (ii) Accountant (iii) Pitch manager (iv) Time keeper / Graphic Designer

You must produce a logo, design a mood-board, source the items, which ultimately will lead to your group producing the final design whereby you will then pitch your product to gain the contract from the Olympic Committee. If you don’t come up to scratch....then ‘You’re Fired!’

You have until 1400hrs to prepare your pitch to a ‘real’ life member of the public.

ALL 4 x MEMBERS OF THE GROUP MUST CONTRIBUTE IN SOME WAY TO THE FINAL PITCHGood luck – Sir Alan Sugar

Role Cards:-Graphic Designer / Time KeeperYour job today is to design the logo for your product.In order to do this – you are the only member of your group who is allowed to go to the ELC to produce the finished piece of work.You must then bring this back to your group and add it to your mood board.Just because you have done this task does not mean that your Team Leader cannot ask you to contribute on other tasks / speak in the presentation.
