Here are 3 things we have learnt from Ms Pan:
1. She was inspired to start Envocycle after noticing the excessive waste generated in our daily lives. This shows her passion for the environment and desire to contribute to a greener future.
2. Despite facing challenges like a low monthly allowance and lack of experience, she persisted in her dream to build a business that recycles waste plastics and metals. This shows her determination and resilience.
3. Over the years, she has expanded Envocycle's operations globally and contributed to Singapore's recycling industry. This shows how her small startup was able to grow successfully through her efforts.
Ms Pan's story teaches us that with a caring heart for the environment and
1. Introduction
Do you know the meaning of the saying
“To save for a rainy day”? A long time ago, when
there were limited means of transport and
resources, man was helpless before the elements.
The rain symbolized a period of hardship. Man
preferred to stay inside his cave or hut as he could
not venture outside. To prepare for his stay, he stored some food and when the rain
finally came, he would survive that period by rationing his stored food. Saving food
prevented him from dying of hunger.
By applying his ancestors’ wisdom, man understood that keeping aside small
amounts as savings would give him the much needed support that he needs during
difficult times. This illustrates the importance of saving and managing money as personal
resources are limited and they have to be allocated for different purposes. Therefore,
there is a need to make rational decisions for purchases by considering the potential costs
and benefits.
In the Children’s Market programme, you learn to be aware and conscious of the
day-to-day decision making processes, apply moral reasoning, make responsible
decisions, and demonstrate integrity to stand by moral principles and shared values.
Throughout this experiential learning journey, you will also learn about the values of
teamwork, the importance of good interpersonal and communication skills. It is also the
aim of this programme to help you foster an entrepreneurial mind-set so that you will learn
about being resourceful, consider taking calculated risks, being resilient, and ultimately
being socially responsible in managing money and resources.
In addition, through the sales of the items at our Children’s Market, you are helping
to save the earth by reusing the same item either for the same function or another.
Industries today expend efforts to match needs with waste. The implementation of this
strategy has contributed to substantial reductions in waste and disposal costs. The
Children’s Market creates awareness of this strategy of reusing unwanted or trash bound
items. This could reduce landfill and its consequential adverse environmental effects. This
flea market contributes, albeit in a small scale, towards social sustainability. It is a fun and
1

2. enjoyable medium of giving a fresh lease of life to unwanted items at, usually, a very low
cost. As the saying goes “One person’s trash is another person’s treasure!”
Your participation in “reusing” or “recycling” used items helps not only to save the
environment, but save your money as well. Furthermore, a reduction in waste production
through a reduction of products purchased would lead to fewer products being purchased.
In turn, this would lead to lower production.
In Children’s Market package you learn about the 4 Ps of marketing mix, namely:
Product and Pricing. Promotion and Place.
Product
A product is offered for satisfying customers’ needs and wants. You will:
• gain exposure on how to obtain information about the types of products that customers
need
• learn how to infuse the 5Rs of environment into the design of product.
• learn how to compare products of similar nature and how to differentiate them from the
rest
• learn to collaborate with peers to design items to make it unique
• learn that packaging is not only for protecting and carrying a product but also for
enticing customers to buy the product.
• learn about evaluating the value of a product so that they can be wise consumers.
Price
Price is the amount charged to customers for a product. You will:
• learn about placing an appropriate price tag on products
• acquire information on cost price versus selling price
• encounter the various types of pricing techniques in the market
• learn the importance of stretching the dollar, savings and budgeting
2
3. Promotion
Promotion is reaching out to customers to inform and persuade them to buy. You will:
• learn about the various types of promotion strategies
• learn how to apply promotion strategies effectively
• learn how to effectively engage and entice target customers
• gain hands-on experience in planning a promotion strategy
Place
Place refers to how a product gets to the customers. You will:
• acquire the essential skills of setting up a stall
• be aware of the factors affecting location of the stalls
• learn how to overcome the weaknesses of a stall location and leverage on the
strengths of a stall location
We wish you an enriching and enjoyable learning experience!

Sakae Holdings Ltd: Mr Douglas Foo
()
7
Douglas Foo is the founder and Executive
Chairman of Sakae Holdings Ltd, a food and
beverage company which owns and operates
Sakae Sushi, one of the leading conveyer belt sushi
chains in Singapore.
Mr Foo, the eldest of three children, was born in
Singapore in 1969. He received his early education
at Red Swastika Primary School where he was both
a top student and prefect. He went on to study at
Dunman High School and Victoria Junior College. In
college, he was active in sports and participated in
long-distance running, laser sailing and windsurfing.
Mr Foo was taught the value of money from an
early age. Once, when he was ten, he called his
father to ask for a lift home because he was having
a fever. His father, instead, chided him for wasting
10 cents on the phone call, and told him that their
house was within walking distance from the school,
and that he should make his own way home.
To supplement his pocket money, he would give tuition from 8 am to 11 pm on
weekends, earning up to $5000 a month. He also worked during the six months
vacation before his National Service. His typical day then involved taking turbine
readings at Pulau Seraya in the mornings, giving relief teaching in the afternoons,
and conducting door-to-door market surveys in the evenings.
8. Values we can learn from Douglas Foo:
Resourceful, Passionate, Creative, Perseverance, Think out of the box
Financial literacy core messages:
• Save: Every cent counts in savings
8
With the success of his first garment manufacturing
and trading business, he began to explore various
ways to diversify his business. He conducted a
survey and found that Singaporeans were becoming
more conscious of their health and what they eat.
Among the various cuisines, Japanese food was
generally considered to be one of the healthiest.
However, at that time, it was also a relatively
expensive dining choice for the masses. Hence he
came up with the idea to offer Japanese food at
affordable prices.
In planning for Sakae Sushi, Mr Foo made
trips to Japan and Hong Kong to study the
operations of conveyor-belt sushi joints. He
decided to implement a single price for all
colour plates (with the exception of
delicacies on red plates) because he felt
that the various colour plates (indicating
the different prices of sushi dishes) used in
Japanese restaurants deterred customers
from ordering more. Sakae Sushi also has
a conveyor belt system to deliver its sushi,
and customers have their own water taps
to make their tea as well as interactive
menus to place their orders.
Today, there are over 100 Sakae Sushi
outlets around the around the world
including Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia,
Thailand, Philippines and China.

Envocycle
11
Envocycle’s environmentally friendly
mission was a result of Ms Pan’s own
passion for making a positive contribution
to society and the environment. By
recycling waste products, Envocycle aims
to spread awareness about pollution, as
well as to minimize the negative effects of
human activity on the environment.

As a result, Envocycle makes it a
point to source for and buy plastic
and metal scraps from countries
around the world before processing
them into pellets or fibres, which
can be used to make new products.
12. Ms Pan faced many challenges when started Envocycle
• At the early stages, Ms Pan lived on a monthly allowance of only five
hundred dollars.
• Her inexperience in managing a business made it difficult for her to
establish reliable contacts.
• She had to work long hours because some of the operations where
overseas and in different time zones.
Despite these obstacles, Ms Pan persisted and today has a thriving business
with multiple regional contacts and operations in China, USA and the UK.

Furthermore, Envocycle’s impact on
society may go beyond creating a
greener environment. Ms Pan hopes
that Envocycle’s operations will help to
provide more job prospects for the
less fortunate overseas, and hopefully
improve their circumstances by
rewarding their hard work.
13. Values we can learn from Serene Pan:
Caring for the environment and being persistent in chasing your dreams.
Financial literacy core messages:
• Start small and achieve success with environmental welfare in mind.

Part (B): Think Green, Act Green : 5Rs
20. It is not easy to make other people act green when they do not see the
benefits and impact of green issues. Here are some amazing and cool facts
that you need to know and we hope you can help spread the green
messages.
Recycling one aluminium can saves
enough energy to run a TV for 2 hours
We all know about the 3 Rs: Recycle, Reuse and Reduce. But do you
know there are actually 5 Rs? If you have not heard about the other 2 Rs yet, here
they are… Here are some ideas for you to use at the Children’s Market.
1. Reduce
Reducing is the first and most effective of the 5Rs. It means reducing your consumption or
buying less. Designing items like plastic bottles in ways that use less material is another
20
Recycling a single glass bottle
would allow you to spend 30
minutes browsing the internet
Lots of paper products can be made from
recycled fibers including cereal boxes,
coffee filters, greeting cards and toilet
paper.
Water saving from phone book recycling
can save 7000 gallons of water. (112000
glasses of water)
1 recycled plastic bottle can light up a 60-
watt bulb. The world’s longest bridge in
Peeblesshire, Scotland is made out of
recycled plastic bottles and household
waste.
Taken from:
• http://earth911.com/news/2012/12/27/12-amazing-recycling-an
21. way to reduce consumption. We can lessen our trash by writing on both sides of the
paper. You can also crush used pieces of used papers into balls for your game stalls.
2. Reuse
Reusing is one of the most practical ways to save the Earth. Besides, this method can
also save you lots of money! You can actually create new things from unwanted materials
that you can find at home or in school. Many materials can be reused, such as paper,
plastic, metal and glass. For example, we always have a lot of empty tissue paper boxes
but we do not know what to do with them. With creativity, you can design them into pretty
boxes to store things! What about empty cans? You can make them into pencil holders or
even beautiful vases for flowers!
3. Recycle
Recycling materials from things that might otherwise be considered trash and turn them
into new products. As a consumer, you can also help to recycle by purchasing products
made from recycled materials, such as toilet paper made from recycled pulp. You can help
by identifying recyclable materials from your trash and placing them into various recycling
bins. These recycling bins can be found in many places in Singapore.
21
22. 4. Refuse
Refuse is the fourth of the 5Rs. By buying biodegradable and environmental friendly
products, we can help reduce the amount of waste we produce. Biodegradable products
will decompose naturally over short periods of time. They will turn back into natural
substances. Unlike plastic, they don't take hundreds or thousands of years to decompose.
All of these translate into less waste, and a better outcome for the environment.
5. Repair
Repair instead of replacing your resources. Try to be resourceful by not buying a new one.
Instead, you repair it and make it useful again. A pencil case with a spoilt zip should not
be thrown away. In fact it can be repaired and reused.
The following products were created by our PVPS pupils who applied the concept of 5Rs
in previous years’ Children Market:

This hand-made product is actually the design
of a flower made from unused 2B pencils and
paper. Using the left over papers from
classroom decoration, they reused them and
folded them into flowers to be capped over the
pencils. This product is a hot selling item during
the Children’s Market!
Yes, you are right! The photo frames and
pencil holders are all made of ice cream sticks.
Pupils gathered all the ice cream sticks and
coloured them. They also recycled plastic
cups and gave them a little twist by adding
rabbit ears and drawings. With the multiple
designs, the customers were spoilt for choice.
These are not ordinary glass bottles but were
recycled ‘Essence of Chicken’ bottles! They
were transformed into wishing bottles. When
pupils purchased the wishing bottles, they
wrote down wishing notes, put them into the
bottle and gave it to their friends as a gift. You
can creatively recycle many other containers.

lives. It is just extra entertainment.
This is a need because we need a
phone to contact our parents in
case of emergencies.
This is a want because ice cream is
a dessert and we cannot treat it as a
normal meal. It is just a treat that
we can do without.
This is a need because rice is
essential in every meal and it gives
us energy.
This is a want because we just need

31. Tips
• Price is the amount of payment or compensation given by one party to another in
return for goods or services
• Revenue is the income one usually receives from the sale of goods and services.
• Expense or expenditure is an outflow of money to another person or group to
pay for an item or service, or for a category of costs
• Profit generally means the total revenue subtracts the total expenses in a given
time
• Loss occurs when expenses exceed the income or total revenue produced for a
given period of time
• We need to consider the 3Cs of pricing when deciding on the right price
• The 3Cs are costs (expenses), competitors’ prices and customers’ willingness to
pay
• There are 5 different kinds of pricing techniques:
- Odd-Even
- Promotional
- Product-Bundle
- Optional-Product
- Product-Line
31
