#ZeroWasteDay

I delivered a whole school drop-down day just on #FoodWaste last week. 270 pupils learning about the value & impact of the food we eat, alongside how & why to avoid waste. A joyful, fun day but #FoodSecurity hardly gets a mention in the national curriculum in England 🙄

Wishing you all a productive week ahead. Don't forget to create your grocery list for the week.
