More about Fair Trade
Yesterday we had a writing workshop for children at Frodsham Arts Centre.
Vale Royal (a district of Cheshire) is setting up a Fair Trade garden at the Royal Horticultural Society show at Tatton Park. They invited me to come and do a reading in this location, and we came up with the idea of a banana writing workshop. The children from St Luke's RC Primary School wrote some amazing poems - vivid and alive - on the theme of Fair Trade. Then they wrote out a key line on a banana, and we took some pictures - a process which we will repeat at the RHS Show.
