We had a visitor today in Primary 2 to tell us a little more about our topic, Fairtrade.  One of our parents, Mr Mariner, is an employee of Co-op supermarket which sells a large range of Fairtrade products and is involved in many Fairtrade projects.

He told us about the lives of farmers and their families in other countries, and how we can help them by buying the Fairtrade products they produce.

He brought with him a selection of Fairtrade products his supermarket sells such as tea, coffee, sugar, chocolate, bananas and even cotton wool.

As a treat for listening to his presentation so well he gave all the children a cookie with Fairtrade chocolate chips and  a Fairtrade banana each to take home.
