To build on this task, we will work with the school council to explore why food is wasted. We will also work with the kitchen staff to look at ways to reduce this waste.

Activity description

Everyone in your school needs to do their bit (or bite!) to tackle food waste. Hold an assembly to share the key facts about food waste and the main messages of what this means for your school.

Think carefully about who you want to hear your message. You might want to invite school governors, parents or dinner staff
in or invite them to participate in your assembly.

You may want to use some of the facts here.

Or show part of a video like this one

Don't forget to end the assembly telling your audience what you want them to do!
