    A 17-year-old entrepreneur blocked from selling ice blocks at school, has moved onto other business ventures

    A 17-year-old entrepreneur blocked from selling ice blocks at school, has moved onto other business ventures


    Kaitaia College's board of trustees shut down the scheme run by Year 13 student, Lennox Goodhue-Wikitera - despite him pledging to donate profits to the school.

    The board found out he'd paid himself a wage, to cover his expenses.

    Goodhue-Wikitera says he's moved into selling products imported from Bali.

    He says he started that business last year, and its slowly growing into selling online and in retail stores.
