Celebrating our GOOD WORK AND Successes

Fairtrade Award - April 2025 

We are delighted that St Joseph's has been awarded the Fairtrade 'FAIRAWARE' School Award for our learning about where our food comes from, the process of food production and how we are connected to people around the world.

We have learnt ways that farm and factory workers can be treated fairly, and the difference between what is fair and unfair treatment of workers in the past and present day. We have learnt that to have fair trading we need fair pay, respect for workers, and good and clean working conditions. 

We celebrated with a Fairtrade Week and ended the week by having a Fairtrade Bake off between the year groups, using Fairtrade produce. Well done Pre-School for winning the competition with their amazing Banana Loaf!
