NBHS Global Citizenship

We are a Fairtrade School – in June we were awarded the FairAchiever aware – the highest level in the Fairtrade Schools Award scheme.

What did we do to achieve this? – We had to demonstrate that Fairtrade is embedded in all aspects of school life. We learn about Fairtrade in our subjects, we organise Fairtrade tuck shops and eat lots of Fairtrade chocolate, as well as healthier snacks, we promote Fairtrade products whenever possible, we have sold Fairtrade rice form Malawi,  the staff drink an amazing quantity of Fairtrade coffee and we work with the local community to promote Fairtrade in and around North Berwick. We have designed Fairtrade tea-towels, held a fashion show and  held a mini football tournament using Fairtrade footballs.
