B and C have been very busy in the second half of January. Our visit to the marketing gym and Dee Blick was exciting, eye opening and hard work! (www.themarketinggym.org)  We feel we learnt so much and have already hired two Girl Fridays to work on our tactical marketing campaign. Well actually, they are young men; a master’s graduate and a trainee barrister so we hope to see our sales rapidly increase. We took some of the resources to see Dee and she wouldn’t let us go without leaving her one of our plastic kettles and a recycled aluminium spoon!

More excitement yet, we have had a meeting with the International Primary Curriculum people, in very posh offices located in view of Buckingham Palace. They are considering how they could use our resources to help teaching and learning in the 1500 schools across the world that use their curriculum, so watch this space.

This week we had our biggest order ever, a school in Kent ordered everything from the catalogue, what intelligent and far-sighted educators must work there and how successful their children are going to be.
