FOUR enterprising pupils from Bellyeoman Primary have won over the judges and taken the top prize at a Fife Dragon's Den event.

Jamie, Molly, Magdalena and Sophia are part of the Dunfermline school's Developing Young Workforce Ambassador group that has been running a community cafe since August in aid of elderly people in the area.

And that convinced the judges at the event, run by Social Enterprise Schools, to give them the top prize, presenting the pupils with a certificate and £150 to put towards their social enterprise project.

Families and residents from care homes were invited along to Bellyeoman Bites and depute headteacher Claire Dingwall explained: "The group decided they wanted to use the profit from the cafes to help the elderly in the community.

"They made connections with the staff working in ward four at the Queen Margaret Hospital and have been busy building care packages for the patients with dementia.

"They visit the patients regularly, delivering the care packages as well as playing games and sharing stories."

The pupils pitched their social enterprise idea to four 'Dragons' including John Penman, the managing director of Fife Fabrications.

The group won over the business managers and came first out of 11 Fife schools.

Mrs Dingwall added: "We are really proud of the hard work, enthusiasm and dedication the group are showing."
