What is the Little Entrepreneurs Learning Academy?

Little Entrepreneurs Learning Academy (LELA) is a hands-on business education program run by high school students that empowers kids from 7-12 years old to think creatively, manage money, and launch their own ideas.

With the support of our brilliant teachers, students will dive into the exciting world of business, learning essential skills like entrepreneurship, understanding the stock market, banking, financial basics, and more. Each session features interactive activities, group projects, or real-world applications to empower participants to turn their creative ideas into reality.

Whether your child is a budding inventor, artist, or business-minded individual, this workshop provides the perfect platform to develop their entrepreneurial skills in a fun and supportive environment.
