Fairtrade Fortnight started at school today with an assembly performed by our Fairtrade Eco Committee.
Our Committee explained that for Fairtrade Fortnight this year, the focus is on cocoa farmers. At school we will be raising money for these farmers by selling Fairtrade bananas at playtime. We will also be selling raffle tickets for a Fairtrade Chocolate Hamper.
To encourage pupils to think about where their food comes from, we are having a Fairtrade Snack Competition. Every playtime we will count how many Fairtrade snacks each class has, and at the end of the fortnight the class who had the most Fairtrade snacks will win a Fairtrade Hot Chocolate Afternoon. Any snack with the Fairtrade logo will be counted.
Good luck everyone! Check back here next week to find out who the winners are!
