Dalbeattie Primary has once again been awarded Fair Achiever School Status. Over the last two years the school eco group has been involved in activities during Fairtrade Fortnight.
These have included class learning and making chocolate and banana muffins with donations of ingredients from local shops including Castle Douglas Tesco, Dalbeattie Co-op and Spar, which helped fundraise for the Fairtrade Foundation.
In 2023, the school also had a successful community challenge which involved pupils searching for Fairtrade products in local shops.
