We’re a social enterprise organisation empowering young people to dream big and think like entrepreneurs.
All funds go directly back into developing our programs and creating opportunities for kids to learn, grow, and make a difference.
Through our Kids Markets, Bizpreneurs, and Greenpreneurs programs, children gain real-world experience in business, innovation, and sustainability.
We help them turn ideas into action — building confidence, creativity, and community impact along the way.

Kids Market – Where It All Begins
Our Kids Market is the heart of the experience. Here, young entrepreneurs:
-
Design and run their own stalls
-
Price and sell products to real customers
-
Build communication, confidence, and money-management skills
Every stall tells a story — and every market is a chance to learn, grow, and shine.

At our markets, the kids are in charge. They proudly set up their own stalls, lay out their products, and greet every customer with a smile. Whether they’re giving change or explaining their creations, each interaction helps them discover the excitement of running their own little business.
KIDS TAKE THE LEAD

LEARNING THROUGH EXPERIENCE
Every child walks away with more than just sales—they gain real-life skills. From handling money to building confidence in speaking with strangers, they’re learning by doing. These small steps create big lessons that stick with them well beyond the market day.

CONFIDENCE MEETS CREATIVITY
There’s nothing quite like the glow of pride when a child makes their first sale. The experience sparks creativity, fuels their imagination, and gives them the courage to try again. Families get to watch their kids shine while enjoying a day filled with inspiration and fun.

Become a Bizpreneur
Build your child’s confidence and money smarts — Bizpreneur membership $49 per year
— a hands-on program where kids plan, price, display and sell their own products at real community markets. Bizpreneur turns curiosity into practical skills through bite-sized learning, badges and market experiences that make learning tangible and fun.
Who it’s for
Bizpreneur is designed for children aged 5–17 who enjoy making, designing or selling, and for parents who want a structured, safe way for kids to learn entrepreneurship and life skills outside the classroom.
How it works
Kids complete short tasks in their Market Passport to earn badges, attend practical workshops to prepare a stall, and then sell at supervised market days. Parents complete a simple sign-up and support practical logistics while kids run the sales and learn by doing.
Every achievement celebrates learning, progress, and confidence, not just winning.
Become a Bizpreneur today and unlock exclusive resources, mentorship, and business tools to turn your ideas into reality!
