Thought of the Week: Fairtrade
"Anyone who criticises me for talking about fair trade is a few pebbles short of a beach. Because everyone should care about it, just like everyone should care about the environment, because we all live here".
Chris Martin
"Yes, I will put it out there - I will work for anyone for free if they're prepared to make their clothing Fair Trade and organic. It's really hard to get people interested in it".
Emma Watson
"When coffee prices fall below production costs, farmers are often forced off their land, and they lose their homes, everything. With fair trade, farmers get a fair price for their harvest with a guaranteed minimum, so they can invest in their crops".

Featured Learning
Totally Awesome English

Students from Year 9 were treated to a round-robin of activities today at Keele University’s ‘Totally Awesome English’. Pupils learned about ‘erasure’ poetry, using creative methods to pick out key words from the text. Next up, was a thrilling criminal ‘whodunnit’ using different reading skills to identify the guilty suspect. Following the action-packed morning of creative word-design and CSI-style solving, pupils then explored the art of storytelling. To finish the day, cultural writing was examined and students tackled the challenging ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ as part of their task. The year 9 students are to be commended on their behaviour and conduct: they represented CCSC wonderfully.
