Chocolicious Morning

On Tuesday 3rd March Houston Primary School opened its door to the community to raise funds for Fairtrade. The tickets were designed by Hannah Sannu in Primary 7 and some chocolate loving  pupils prepared chocolate stirrers which were added to milk to make delicious  hot chocolate. Home baking was provided by an army of volunteers from the Houston and Killellan Church. The event was an amazing success and raised much needed money for the Fairtrade charity. We do not have a final total yet but will post as soon as we have it. Thank you to everyone who came .along and to Mrs Morrison for organising,

Fairtrade Award

Our school was the first school in Renfrewshire to achieve Fairtrade status. We have recently received the John McDowell award for our effort and commitment over the years.

This year Fairtrade Fortnight is 24 Feb - 8 March with the focus this year on cocoa farmers and their families.

We will also be working in partnership with Houston Kirk, by hosting a community Fairtrade event, ‘Chocolicious’ on Tuesday 3 March at 10.15-11.45 in Houston Primary with an extensive selection of Fairtrade hot chocolate, tea and coffee on offer.
