Story: Liz Smith

From 5th March, children explored the meaning of Fairtrade and how they support farmers across the world.

They designed posters to raise awareness about Fairtrade and the knowledge gained was shared in an open morning for parents and friends. Fairtrade goods were sold in the Cafe and the School Council shared the work done in the local community.

Following the local shopping survey carried out by the Y2 to Y6 children, school council reps were invited to tea in the Lord Major’s parlour to celebrate the work that they are doing.

We are proud of the way our children develop their understanding of this topic year on year. This important work helps children understand the meaning of Global Citizenship.
