Leeds Fairtrade Birthday Celebrations!

We were lucky to be invited to Leeds Civic Hall for the 10 year celebration of Leeds becoming a Fairtrade City.IMG_1756

 

 

 

 

 

We inspected the cake competition entries with the Lord Mayor and had a photo opportunity with M.P. Hilary Benn.IMG_1780

 

 

 

 

 

But best of all Erin won the competition to design a birthday card for our cities celebrations. Here she is being congratulated by M.P. Fabian Hamilton.IMG_1774

 

Oh, and I nearly forgot, we had to eat lots of Fairtrade cake. Well it would have been rude to say no when people had put in all that effort! Thank you for a fantastic afternoon!

There has been some fantastic learning going on about Fairtrade!

We began Fairtrade Fortnight with a Fairtrade assembly led by our school council.

Then on Monday 3rd our whole school enjoyed a Fairtrade breakfast of Fairtrade juice and a Fairtrade banana.

 

 

 

Some children in years 5 and 6 cooked a Fairtrade banana curry.
