Strathaven Fairtrade In Education
The Strathaven Fairtrade Group has been responsible for raising awareness in all of the local primary schools and in Strathaven Academy organising tasting sessions and other events. Our annual poster and poem competition produces fabulous results with our primary school children. The children are leaving primary education already familiar with the message of Fairtrade and will continue to be involved in secondary school.
Strathaven Fairtrade Group has noticed that local children's choices had been influenced by their understanding of the principles of Fairtrade. We are absolutely amazed by the number of children who visit our stalls to buy Fairtrade produces knowing exactly what they want. We feel proud as a group by the results of our hard work.
