Fairtrade Fortnight takes place from 26th February-12th March 2018. We have been talking about this in nursery and how farmers around the world deserve a fair price for the hard work they do and that Fairtrade products help ensure this happens. This will mean the farmers and their children won’t go hungry, can go to school, can pay for medical care if needed and also have better living conditions.
We are having a Fairtrade raffle on Wednesday 7th March and are looking for Fairtrade products to support this. We have also asked local supermarkets. If you can help, please add your donations to the basket in the foyer. We are supporting this years ‘Toilet Twinning’ program, please take a look at the video below to see how these donations are helping children around the world…
‘Bridget in Uganda used to miss class in order to fetch drinking water from a stream. Now, clean water is piped to a tapstand at her school, thanks to Toilet Twinning. She’s learnt the importance of washing her hands – and she’s passed this info on to her parents’
