Well done, Base 9. I am really impressed with all that you have learnt about fairtrade today and how quickly you have got to grips with blogging. I am looking forward to doing some cooking with you after half-term at Forest School. I have got a few recipes in mind, but would love it if you could use your research skills to find some more suggestions of things we could cook using some fair trade ingredients. Please let me know! Thank you
