On Friday we had a trial Auction to see how well it would work to help support the ReesBank reward system. Everyone really enjoyed the auction with many frantic hands being raised during the bidding process. Marica did a fantastic job as Auctioneer and Stella was an exceptional Auctioneer’s Assistant.
Unfortunately it was very time sapping and is unlikely to happen again during class time. If the auction was held at lunch or perhaps on the last day of term, time would not be such a big issue.
List of items sold:
- 126 – $36 – Fluoro Liquid Sharpener - Kai
- 108 – $100 – Fish Keeper Job – Nausheen and Marica
- 120 – $100 – Insect Keeper Job – Skye and Dorsa
- 113 – $55 – Naming New Fish – Luc
- 119 – $65 – Fluoro Liquid Sharpener – Corben
- 124 – $30 – Pen – Kiyoka

As a class you have earned $3 091.00 in 3 weeks (an average of around $100 per student) and spent $903.00 at auction.
If we did hold the auction again, how do you think it could be improved?
