Fare Share at Trinant Primary:

Every Friday during term time, Fare Share delivers quality surplus food that consists of anything from tinned goods, fruit, and vegetables to dairy products, meat, and cupboard goods. 

If you would like to purchase a Fare Share bag please have your child bring in £3 on a Thursday to the school office ready for the Fare Share bag to be made up and sent home on a Friday at the end of school. 

All of the monies raised from Fare Share is reinvested straight back into the school to help fund school fetes, school trips, equipment, the cost of swimming lessons, and the cost of buses, etc.
