Day: October 2, 2018

we have done fair trade for the past 3 to 4 weeks and I have learned a lot of things about fairtrade and here are some facts about fairtrade

They make bananas,coffee, tea, chocolate  from Columbia and brazil.

 

This Wednesday we are having coffee  afternoon from 2:00 to 3:00 and 5:30 to 6:30 after school  and all of the cakes  and the coffee are fair trade

 

 

why are you doing this : because we are raising money to help farmers in other country’s to have running water and a home and to send there children to school without fair trade farmers wouldn’t have a home and they wouldn’t send there children to get water miles and miles away  instead of doing there home work  and then getting in to trouble

Tomorrow there’s a fair trade coffee afternoon at holywood primary school the p.5-7 have been organizing it. The time that its on at is 2 o clock till 3. There is another one which is 5.30pm till half 6 we have been baking cakes like rice Krispy treats. Miss McIntyre has spent her Sunday afternoon baking for this fair trade afternoon.

The reason we are doing this coffee afternoon is for farmers in countries like Spain and Mexico who produce all of the cocoa beans and all of our fair trade food and because they don’t get enough money to keep a roof over there family’s head so we have raised some money to give to them.

This week we have been planning and organising our Community Fair Trade Event. Yesterday (The first of October 2018), we baked a bunch of Chocolate Rice Krispy Cakes!!!! Fair trade of course! We hope you are all coming to the Event!!!! There are two times; One of them is 2pm-3pm and one of them is 5:30pm-6:00. The Event is open to the Community around us.

Some of the adults/parents are making cakes for the Event and Miss McIntyre has made Rice Krispy Cakes, Brownies and other delicious treats!!!! Some of the Rice Krispy Treats we made have Maltesers in them, and marshmallows on top of them!!!! We will be also making Chocolate and Banana Muffins for the Event.

 

We took a School Trip to Tesco’s in Dumfries to view and learn more about some of the Fair Trade Items they sell. We  found out that there are hundreds of Fair Trade Coffee Brands and not many Fair Trade Biscuits!!!! If you don’t know what Fair Trade is, it helps Farmers get the Money they need to send their children/kids to a suitable School, Afford School Lunches, Electricity, Water Bills, Clothes, Food, Clean Water and many other needed things….

 

We hope to see you at our Fair Trade Event on Wednesday/Tomorrow/The 3rd Of October 2018!!!! X3

We have been making cakes for the fair-trade afternoon tomorrow some parents are baking cakes for tomorrow I think it will be fun. fair trade is when farmers get a premium price so that there kids can go to school and so that they can get food and water.
