Fair Trade Big Breakfast

Primary 2 have been very busy organising a Fair Trade Café, writing letters to local businesses, sending out invitations to our Big Breakfast and creating Fair Trade pieces of art.

We would like to say a huge “Thank You” to our community business partners for donating so generously to our  Big Fair Trade Breakfast. Thanks to Coop (Clarkston), Scotmid (Eaglesham & Mearns), Morrisons(Giffnock), Tesco(Silverburn) and Eaglesham Bakers! Special thanks to our very own star baker, Mrs Parker, who baked delicious Fair Trade cakes! Thanks to all the staff who helped to serve  our guests.
