Fair Trade Day


On Tuesday 3rd of March our school went 'Bananas for Fairtrade'. Our giant inflatable banana travelled around the classrooms all day and brought with it a fair-trade banana for every pupil.
Fairtrade is to help farmers in third world countries get fair prices for their crops. Fairtrade doesn’t just focus on food. You can get Fairtrade clothes, footballs, cotton wool & other things that farmers in third world countries can produce.
Later on at 3:00 pm we held a Fairtrade café. We sold tea, coffee, juice and cereal bars. All of them were Fairtrade and were sold for 20p.
