Fairtrade Fortnight bunting


Fairtrade Fortnight took place this year from 28Feb - 13 March. I worked with King Edward V1 School, Handsworth on making a bunting. Working with years 7, 8 and 12 and in collaboration with Nick Bassett, Head of Art, we produced two hundred individual flags to create a bunting.





It was part of a national attempt to beat the Guinness world record for the longest bunting which currently stands at 2,696 metres.The girls decorated the flags, which we then strung together to create buntings to stretch across the archways along the main corridor. It really brightened up the corridor. The bunting has since been sent off to Fairtrade to be counted as part of the record bid. The Fairtrade target is 4.550 metres.
