Our Business School Excursions..
Transform your business innovation class with hands-on, real-world experiences! Our excursions take place right in the heart of our thriving apple orchard, offering students an immersive learning environment. Here, money really does grow on trees. They’ll gain firsthand insight into the incredible journey of how two Registered Nurses—Chris and Emily—purchased a commercial apple orchard with no prior experience and turned it into a flourishing tourism business
.
Created for Stage 1 & 2 Business Innovation students, this isn't just a classroom lesson—it's a deep dive into the entrepreneurial spirit, where students will learn directly from Chris and Emily. With their unwavering passion for business, they provide a transparent and engaging session that will help students understand the challenges, strategies, and triumphs behind @Lenswood's success. Come see how ordinary people can achieve extraordinary success in the world of business!
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Students will embark on an immersive tour of our property, offering a firsthand look at how commercial farms operate from a business perspective. They'll then dive into our innovative business model, gaining insight into what sets us apart. Throughout the day, they'll explore key business areas like marketing, logistics, human resources, strategy, accounting, legal and safety considerations, and personal development—all while learning what it truly takes to create a successful product.
​
To cap off the experience, students will work in groups to pitch a fresh business idea to us, applying the knowledge and skills they've gained throughout the day. It's a dynamic opportunity to see how theory translates into practice, and how creative thinking can shape the future of a business. Want to book? Click here!
