The Fairtrade Committee
A bit about us ...
At Coquet Park we believe learning about Fairtrade is an ideal opportunity for children to find out about the world they live in. Through Fairtrade events we can contribute to making the world a fairer place and be involved in something that’s happening all over the country and around the world. Throughout the year the Fairtrade Committee works hard to raise awareness of Fairtrade by organising various events and activities.
The Great Coquet Park Fairtrade
Bake Off
The Fairtrade committee organised our very our Fairtrade Coquet Park Bake Off which was a huge success. All children and families throughout school were invited to enter their bakes into the competition. We had an overwhelming number of cakes, biscuits, cake pops and even fudge, all of which had been made using Fairtrade ingredients.
The Fairtrade committee took their role of judging the competition very seriously and thought long and hard about who should win in each category. They considered Fairtrade ingredients being used, the appearance of the bake and of course the overall taste!
The event managed to raise over £200.00 which we are donating to World Vision. Further news on that to follow soon!
Fairtrade Fortnight
We hosted a special Fairtrade Fortnight assembly where the Fairtrade Committee members from Year 4 told the story of Rosa and Migel from Panama and how Fairtrade have helped them get to a better deal for their village.
