Levi Roots with Rianne Kirton-Ried and Nicholas Cabral, both aged eight
DRAGONS’ Den star Levi Roots has paid a visit to primary school children to give them an inspirational talk.
Around 200 pupils, aged six to 11, from Kelvin Grove School in Kirkdale, Sydenham, took part in a question and answer session with the entrepreneur.
Mr Roots, a musician and Caribbean chef, shot to fame after appearing on the Dragons’ Den programme with his Reggae Reggae Sauce product.
He told the youngsters about his life before and after appearing on the show and sang his Reggae Reggae song.
Mr Roots also gave out autographed Reggae Reggae Sauce and his DVD to the children who answered his questions correctly.
His message to the children was have passion for what you do, have a good idea, focus and work hard.
