Would you think that I was a complete nutter if I very tactfully suggested offering fair trade cotton ones as an option/instead of the current ones? These people offer them and they are cheaper than what we are currently paying for not fair trade/not 100% cotton. I've asked a friend who is a parent governor, and she is pretty sure that the school doesn't add a mark up as a fund raiser - so they would genuinely be cheaper as well as the ethical benefit. The polo shirts are cheaper too.
But (given that I am already a mad hippy mother) I don't want to be written down as an awkward parent/PITA for suggesting it . . . What do you think?
