Fairtrade Group off to a great start!

The first meeting of the Medina Fairtrade group was held on Friday 21 January, where students and staff discussed actions that can be taken to work towards the FairActive award. It was a great opportunity for students and staff to discuss individual motivations for wanting to be involved in a group, working for more equality to the developing world, and to try some different Fairtrade chocolate at the same time.

The group was started following the successful PSHE lesson at the end of last term on Fairtrade.  The group will be meeting next week Friday, 4th February with the aim of discussing activities and events to be involved in for the up-coming Fairtrade Fortnight. Please get in contact with Mr Donald if you are interested in joining.

As part of the Fairtrade work in PSHE, Tutor group 8D produced this fantastic Fairtrade tree to highlight the importance of the charity.
