The children have been learning about Fairtrade. The children were asked to bring things in from home that had the Fairtrade logo on it.

What do we know about Fairtrade?

“I have seen it on bananas” Bradley

“You have to be fair ” Tilly.

“It kind of means its a trade for food to go on” Alex.

We went on a walk to the local shops to look for the Fairtrade logo.

We bought bananas and chocolate from the shops with the Fairtrade logo. Then we gave them to the office ladies and our janitor Mr Stern and explained why we bought them.
