Year 5 and 6 have been busy making Easter Cards for the residents of Hadrian House Care Home. Today, three Mini Vinnies visited the home with Mrs Wilders to deliver them. All the residents enjoyed meeting the children and were delighted to receive the cards. Well done Year 5 and 6!
Well done to everyone who took part in CAFOD’s Give it Up Challenge this Lent! Altogether we raised £245 which will go towards helping families like Rabiul’s who do not have enough to eat.
We have raised enough to buy 30 ducks and a protected pond for a family to breed fish! Or enough for 245 fruit trees!
We are delighted to say that after submitting our evidence, we have contacted by the Fairtrade Foundation to say that they have awarded us with ‘FairAchiever’ status once again because of the outstanding quality of the school’s work and commitment to Fairtrade.
We showed that we continue to learn about Fair Trade in the classroom, use Fairtrade products and take action to promote Fairtrade in the school and wider community.
Thank you to everyone in the School who has learnt about, promoted and taken action for Fairtrade!
On Monday 4th March, as part of our Fairtrade Fortnight celebrations, Mini Vinnies organised a Fairtrade Bakesale.
There was a fantastic array of cakes together with Fairtrade Tea and Coffee. Thank you to everyone who prepared the cakes and biscuits and to everyone who came along to support the event. A special thank you to Reception Class for baking delicious Fairtrade chocolate chip cookies.
In total, £125 was raise and will be sent to Traidcraft and the Fairtrade Foundation who support farmers in poor communities to make the world a better, fairer place by fighting injustice in trade.
Thank you to everyone who entered the Fairtrade Bake-off on Monday. We were very impressed by all the amazing and wonderful cakes and biscuits which were made using Fairtrade ingredients.
Choosing winners was very difficult as all the entries were delicious and all had included Fairtrade products such as chocolate, cocoa powder, bananas vanilla essence,cinnamon, all kinds of sugar and Earl Grey tea!
Well done to all the children from Nursery to Year 6 who found Fairtrade ingredients and made such delicious cakes and biscuits.
