Fairtrade Fortnight (29th February – 13th March 2016). Thank you very much to the Co-op store in Spennymoor and Starbucks in Bishop Auckland for kindly donating products for the children to use in their “Fairtrade snacks” on Friday 4th March.
School had an assembly led by Mrs Harnaman where the children found out about the principles of fairtrade – a fair deal for farmers in deprived countries ensuring that these people are able to feed their own children. Our pupils understand that it is a right of all children to “nutritious food and rich countries should help poorer countries achieve this.” Article 24.
