Fairtrade Fred on his special mission!
On Friday 14th September Year 5 presented their assembly all about Fairtrade and why choosing Fairtrade products is a good thing to do.
The children explained why buying products which have the Fairtrade logo on them mean that the farmer who helped produce the product gets a fair price for the work they have done.
The children also explained that they thought that Jesus would have brought Fairtrade products if they had been available in his time.
The children linked the actions of buying Fairtrade products to showing compassion and love to our brothers and sisters around the world.
One child commented, “By buying Fairtrade we are being like Jesus and caring for other people as he would have done.”
