Today, Maktab Sains Paduka Seri Begawan Sultan organized a field trip for the Year 9, MA 4 and MA 5 students who took Economics as an optional subject and some lucky PoA students to the Ministry of Finance. Since 'we' (the creators of this blog) were Economics students, we too were able to experience such a interesting trip.

We entered the gallery and saw and learnt a lot of things about the Brunei Dollar. We read through the history, looked at the different types of Brunei dollars according to their time period and figured out what the logo on each coin meant.

Then, we watched a powerpoint telling us about the value of a Brunei Dollar. After that, we were allowed to ask all the questions that have been on our minds for ages concerning Economics. With this, we further understood how important economics is in our lives.

Finally we were treated to food and beverages after a long day, took a group photo and went back to school at 4.30.
