What is Fairtrade? Fairtrade is to help people in different countries who don’t get paid properly. We are trying to raise awareness about Fairtrade. Fairtrade fortnight is coming up soon on the 23^rd– of February 2015 to the 8^th– March . There will be a terrific treasure hunt and a lovely coffee evening and a magnificent mascot competition.

When we visited the p6/7 area two pupils said “The snacks are super yummy.” The Fairtrade organise fun things for the school to take part in and have a bit of fun, especially during Fairtrade Fortnight! Every Friday the p6/7 does a fairtrade tuck shop and most items are about 50p.

Each year the school has an election to decide the Fairtrade representatives who have meetings once a term with teachers at lunch time.
