YOUNG
CONSUMER OF THE YEAR 2004
On Friday 5th March I was delighted
to act as question master at the Young Consumer Quiz 2004 organised
by the General Consumer Council and Trading Standards Service.
Four teams were tested on their knowledge of consumer rights and
responsibilities,
• Abbey Grammar Newry,
• Ballymena Academy,
• Methodist College Belfast
• Thornhill College, Derry.
The winners were Abbey
Grammar, Newry – well done to their team!
And for the very first
time, as well as the quiz this year there was a new project strand
of the competition sponsored by the Food Standards Agency. 9 schools
throughout Northern Ireland set about the task of designing a newsletter,
not only on consumer rights but food safety, diet and nutrition.
The winner of the project competition was Lisnaskea High School.
Well done for creating a great newsletter, which will be published
and sent to all the schools
