The Fairtrade Committee encourage the school community to purchase Fairtrade products as this ensures that farmers in developing countries are given a fair price for their produce enabling them to provide for their families, make their own decisions, control their futures and live the dignified life everyone deserves.

Fairtrade Fortnight takes place and the end of February and the children will be involved in planning and presenting assemblies, competitions are held throughout the school and activities are completed in class to highlight the importance of Fairtrade for families around the world.  Parents and friends are encouraged through their children to try to purchase a Fairtrade product when doing the weekly shopping.

Our aim in school is to be good global citizens, learning about Fairtrade and the benefits for farmers and producers around the world is an excellent way towards achieving this.
