Arbroath High School participated in the nationwide Big Fairtrade Breakfast. The event was held in the Library, on World Book Day, for senior pupils and staff. The Fairtrade Group provided lots of different breakfast items for everyone to enjoy. Some of these included Fairtrade pancakes, toast with Fairtrade honey, jam or marmalade, Fairtrade fresh fruit, homemade Fairtrade cereal bars, Fairtrade banana loaf, Fairtrade hot chocolate and Fairtrade orange juice.

The S4 Hospitality class made some Fairtrade muffins which were delicious. Starbucks in Dundee also donated some Fairtrade coffee and supplied the milk.

The library was decorated with Fairtrade bunting, Fairtrade roses and our inflatable Fairtrade banana! Pupils played the piano and guitar in the background which created a fantastic atmosphere. The event was thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended and raised awareness of how many great Fairtrade products are out there for us to buy.

Photographed, with their teacher and organiser, Mrs Lynne Roy, are just some of the fantastic senior pupils who served up the Big Fairtrade Breakfast and who made it such a great success
