Fairtrade
Fair Trade Chocolate on PhotoPeach
Recently, both Year 4 classes have been learning about Fairtrade and the importance of buying Fairtrade products. They realised that some cocoa farmers around the world had not been given a decent wage and that Fairtrade ensures that all farmers get paid for the hard work they do. A visitor from a Fairtrade Chocolate organisation came in to talk to the children, had them taste different Fairtrade chocolate products and then helped them make their own rice-krispy cakes, using Fairtrade chocolate.
Year 4 are also looking forward to being visited by a cocoa farmer... we will tell you about that soon!
