This school year, the focus of our GeoCircle assignment has been shifted towards "Circular Eating."

Therefore, students of a Geography course in Year 9 were asked by the school administration to reduce the amount of waste created by eating and drinking.

After having received an overview of issues concerning hunger, food waste and food security as well as a revision on key pillars of Circular Economy (REFUSE, REDUCE, RECYCLE as main "Rs" to incorporate in a circular economy at our school), the students set up consultancies and brainstomed ideas. These ideas overall addressed changing the school community's consumer habits, e.g.:
- only take as much food as you can eat
- bring your own bottle(no PET bottles, water fountains)
- try to avoid packaged food

Key ideas that were brought up by the different consultancies included carrying out workshops for students to inform them on their consumer behaviour as well as creating posters to be put up in the school buildings and cafeteria to change the school's community consumer behaviour regarding food waste.
