MoneySmart Young Entrepreneurs Programme
“Helping Young Minds Build a Healthy Relationship with Money”
A financial literacy and entrepreneurship programme for students aged 8–18, delivered through online live tuition.
About the Programme
Every parent wants their child to succeed in life. We encourage our children to excel in school, learn technology, develop talents and pursue rewarding careers. Yet one of the most important life skills is often overlooked: understanding how money works.
Many adults earn a good income but struggle with saving, budgeting, investing and making sound financial decisions because they were never taught these skills while growing up. The MoneySmart Young Entrepreneurs Programme was created to change that.
Designed for upper primary and junior high school students, the programme equips young people with practical money skills, entrepreneurial thinking and decision-making abilities that can benefit them for a lifetime. Through engaging, age-appropriate lessons, students learn how money is earned, saved, spent, invested and managed responsibly, while developing the confidence, discipline and mindset needed for future success.
Whether your child dreams of becoming a doctor, engineer, entrepreneur, teacher, lawyer, artist or business leader, they will need more than academic knowledge to thrive. They will need financial wisdom. The MoneySmart Young Entrepreneurs Programme helps lay that foundation early, empowering young people to make smarter choices, seize opportunities and build brighter futures.
