Fair Trade Fortnight

This year the Fairtrade Foundation is asking everyone to ‘Take a Step for Fair Trade in 2012’. At Currie HS a display of posters was prepared by pupils in Modern Languages and the Fair Trade Group prepared  information and a video clip which was shown during extended registration. Pupils were then asked to consider if they would be willing to ‘Take a step for Fair Trade’.  We had a wonderful response, the pledges they made are displayed on  two huge feet in the foyer and we have taken 436 steps for Fair Trade! Four Senior pupils also visited Currie Senior Citizens group to talk with them about Fair Trade, one of the topics discussed was ‘Is Fair Trade affordable on a pension?’ Cupcakes made by pupils using Fair Trade products in the ingredients and coffe served to staff were also very popular!
