In Term 3 we were learning about Fairtrade.\u00a0 We talked about what it means and who it affects.\u00a0 We learned about people in other parts of the world and the different things that they can grow in their warmer, tropical climates.<\/p>\n

We all love chocolate, but do you know what happens before it arrives at the shop for you to buy?\u00a0 We do!\u00a0 Our class learned about where cocoa comes from and all of the different parts of the chocolate making process.\u00a0 It is important that people involved in this process are paid a fair price for the food that they produce.<\/p>\n

We looked for the Fairtrade logo on different products and tried out a couple of different recipes containing these products.\u00a0 Everyone helped to either measure, mix, whisk, fill muffin cases or wash\/dry dishes.\u00a0 What a busy morning we had!\u00a0 Then we each enjoyed a muffin at snack time.\u00a0 Yum!<\/p>\n

There were several requests to have the recipes posted on our blog so that they can be tried out at home too.!\u00a0 See below for the recipes.<\/p>\n

Working with a partner, we spent time researching different foods that we want to see being traded fairly.\u00a0 Our research posters are on display now for all to enjoy.<\/p>\n
