PUPILS at Thorp Primary School, Royton, are heading in the right direction when it comes to finding out about Fairtrade products.
They took part in an orienteering event to discover more about the scheme which helps farmers in developing countries get a better deal for their products.
The fun was part of National Sports Week and teams representing Fairtrade countries and their products had to solve a series of clues. They then tucked into Fairtrade snacks.
