PUPILS at Biggar Primary School have been celebrating all things Fairtrade with a number of events.
Over the past two months, children have held a coffee morning for the public and designed their own Fairtrade T-shirts.
Headteacher Heather Graham told the Peeblesshire News: “We have been a Fairtrade school since 2009 and this year’s theme was ‘take a break’.
“It was all about having a break from work and we held a local coffee morning on Thursday, March 9.
“The whole school was involved in a Fairtrade T-shirt competition which we organised and we printed the winner of each class.
“The idea of the events is to promote the ethical products to the children.”
