Aberlady Primary School
Primary

2016/17 P6 and P7 classes ran a very successful silent art auction that portrayed paintings of key features from around the village. It was decided that the monies raised would be reinjected back into the community via a further social enterprise initiative. The P7’s left for high school and their suggested way forward was to have hens and sell their eggs The current P7 class took the lead role into the research of the initial idea. They came up against too many barriers and it was decided to go back to the planning stage. The pupils produced presentations to members of the wider community in a dragons den activity. The agreed way forward was to use the monies raised to purchase an outdoor oven for making and selling pizzas to the Aberlady community. Pupils researched outdoor ovens, costings and contacted the relevant departments of East Lothian Council for the initiative to go ahead – Health & Safety, Food Hygiene, Planning and Architects. The model of outdoor oven selected by the pupil was UNNI 3. The backstory to the UNNI oven fitted well as that too started as a social enterprise based on crowd funding and the founder is from Edinburgh.
