13 to 30? I thought I was still young at 36!
They seem to be promoting entrepreneurship a lot more in schools these days which is a change from my school days.
Again 13 to 30 I thought I was a youngster at 32, guess I missed out on this one.
Glad to see that schools are promoting the idea of entrepreneurship.
Makes a change from Children all being labled with an Asbo.
