The shop attracted interest from students and staff, offering a range of stationery items aimed at meeting students' everyday needs.

PenPals will operate twice every half term, with 50% of profits to be donated to the school’s chosen charities at the end of the academic year. This initiative allows students to gain practical experience in running a small business while contributing to a charitable cause.

Head of  Enterprise Club, Liz Tyler, commented, “The launch of PenPals provides a straightforward opportunity for students to learn about business and social responsibility.”

PenPals will continue to operate throughout the year, providing a practical learning experience for students involved in the Enterprise Club while offering a convenient source of supplies to the school community.
