He said the finance and investment competition as offered by BSE only don’t prepare the students to be entrepreneurs at grass root level but stimulate financial literacy awareness.

Digwa went on to say that the platform is beneficial in many ways indicating that it also helps to broaden the students’ knowledge as most of the material that is covered complement what they are being taught in classroom. “The competition continues to realize growth every year.

Lobatse claimed the competition glory after beating Francistown Senior School in the final before beating the other Lobatse defeating in the semifinals their neighbors’ Crescent school.

FSS had defeated Letlhakane senior secondary school to claim spot in the competition final.

Letlhakane senior and Crescent schools finished on third and fourth positions respectively.

Five of Lobatse students  who won the competition were awarded share vouchers worth P2,500 each to invest in any BSE listed company with the FSS’ five team student  winning P 1 000 share vouchers each.

BSE Head of Market Development, Thapelo Moribame, observed that the competition continue to grow in leaps and bounds year in and out, applauding teachers for drilling the students well.

She said the pupils’ brilliant perfomances signals a bright future ahead of them should they decide to venture into entrepreneurship urging the students to fully utilise the competition.
