Fairtrade Fortnight




Fairtrade Fortnight
Share
St Peter's 2-8 Charity


Year 3 have been celebrating Fairtrade Fortnight by delving into the world of sustainability and supporting Fairtrade farmers. 

The children discussed how the choices we make every day affect others and came up with a list of good choices we can make to help our environment and the world.  

They looked carefully at where rainforests are in the world and learnt about deforestation linked to their key text ‘The Jungle Book’. 

After learning about what deforestation is and why it is happening, Year 3 went on to consider the pros and cons of felling the trees. The children created some strong arguments for both then held a debate, discussing their thoughts and opinions with enthusiasm and passion.  

It was clear that they all felt strongly against deforestation and decided to write a persuasive letter to David Attenborough to inform him of the current situation and shock him with terrifying statistics!
