Holmston – a FairAware school

Well done to our P4 Fair Trade ambassadors for leading our work in Fair Trade. As a result of their continued commitment, Holmston is now a FairAware school.

We hope you can join us next Friday (9th March) at 1.45pm as we unveil our playground charters and then move into the classrooms to share our Fair Trade journey so far. (Further details will be sent out)

FAIRTRADE FORTNIGHT HAMPER

During the Fairtrade Fortnight, Holmston Primary School, led by Primary 4, will be raffling off a hamper full of Fairtrade goods. Raffle tickets will be on sale in the school and in the playground from Tuesday 27th February until Friday 9th March.  Raffle tickets are 50p a ticket.  During the Fairtrade Fortnight there will also be the chance for the children to buy biscuits made in the school by some of our pupils.  All money raised will be donated to Fairtrade.

Dress Down Day – Thursday 8.2.18

At Holmston Primary we are aiming towards becoming a Fairtrade School.

We are holding a non-uniform/dress down day on Thursday, 8th February 2018 to help us raise funds for a Fairtrade challenge that will take place during Fairtrade Fortnight 26th Feb – 11th March 2018.  Pupils are asked to make a donation to wear their own clothes. Please remember that football colours are not suitable. All contributions are voluntary

The Fairtrade campaign this year is called “Come On In” and we will be inviting parents to ‘come on in’ on Friday 9th March from 2.00pm and share our learning about the work Fairtrade does and the impact it has on people and families around the world.
