On the 11th of October 2009, we had our presentation for the School Personal Finance Awareness Campaign. The group members (Maitha Al Suwaidi, Maryam Shaqooi, Nouf Adnan, Reem Alyasi) gathered at 12:00 PM in Dubai Women’s College to start preparing for the presentation. We arranged to present in front of students from Al Waha Secondary School (Al Aweer ) from grade 12.
When the students arrived our college, one of their teachers sent us SMS to notify us, some of the group members went to show them the way to the class. During this time, the rest of the group were preparing the presentation and the class for the students. They were 14 students and 2 teachers. At 12:15 PM we started our presentation and we talked about a curial topic especially for the school girls to start thinking about their money and how they can plan to use it. Some of the girls showed a big interest in how they can start opening a saving account and we explained for them in details as we have a background in the personal finance. In addition, we took pictures for us while we were presenting but their teachers refused to have one.
After 30 minutes, we finished the presentation and were pleased to know that our topic helped the students to start thinking seriously about how can they use their money properly and save it at the same time. Their teachers liked our presentation and they would like us to visit their school in the future to present any of our projects to their students in the near future.
