Dear Kate

I would like to pass on my thanks to the members of the Green Schools Committee from your school who gave a wonderful and very informative presentation to our Community Café on Fair Trade and the products available for sale in Ireland.
We were all very impressed with the amount of work the children have put in to researching Fair Trade and spreading the word within your school and then to the wider community by calling in to the Community Café.
The Posters on display were very colourful and we were all amazed at the number of products the children had collected which are Fair Trade. The Banana Bread, Chocolate Biscuit Cake and Cookies that the children made for us were very tasty and enjoyed by all.  We tried the tea and coffee and compared them to the non-Fair Trade products at the Cafe.  So we not only got to see and hear what Fair Trade is all about we also got to taste it as well.
After the children had left the Hall, there was lots of chat about Fair Trade and most of us surprised at how many products are Fair Trade and when people arrived later for the Café the information we had picked up from the school children was passed on to them.
Once again thank you for all the hard work and effort the Green Schools committee put into today’s presentation.  We look forward to seeing you in January to see how much more we know about Fair Trade.
