Students at Kanisius Kobong Elementary School had an enjoyable and educational experience during Market Day. The event introduced students to basic concepts of money and business in a fun and practical way. As part of the activity, they sold onde-onde, a traditional Indonesian snack, giving them the opportunity to experience simple trading activities firsthand.

Each student was assigned different responsibilities, such as preparing their booth and handling money transactions. They learned how to interact politely with customers, issue payments, and determine prices. Many parents and teachers also attended the event and participated by purchasing snacks from the students.

Through this activity, students gained a foundational understanding of how a small business operates and how money is managed in everyday situations. They also developed important values such as responsibility, discipline, and teamwork. Overall, the experience helped students build confidence and early financial awareness in a meaningful and engaging way.
