I think we looked into this one a week or two ago.

  1. Franchised private Kindergarden is not doing well.
  2. Management is replaced.
  3. Management brainstorms; there are no bad ideas.
  4. Someone throws out the idea of a $2200 bound book consisting of the artwork.
  5. Management clumsily begs the parents to buy a copy/give permission for inclusion.
  6. Story goes viral
  7. Antipodean cringe humour ensues:

“We did not make this organisation insolvent, it was already insolvent,” the management committee said on Sunday.
