On 19 April between 10:00 and 12:00 noon, four students from 5m cooked buckwheat and asparagus risotto in the City Park Spar.
The event was organised by the renowned cooking project Kuhnapato, which aims to promote cooking skills among the young and show how to prepare local and seasonal dishes which are best for the body and the environment.
The event also commemorates the official day of food zero-waste cooking (24 April).
The students created an excellent dish (the visitors to the stall munched it up!) and learnt a lot about the challenges of chefs and teamwork in restaurants.
All in all, well done!

Despite the bad weather, 11 motivated students attended the environmental camp at CŠOD Cerkno.
Most of their time was spent outside in beautiful unspoilt nature. They explored the local sites and learnt about the Carnival tradition “Cerkljanski laufarji”. They also walked to the World War II Franja Hospital. The tour was led by an experienced guide and the students learnt a lot of new interesting facts.
The students also tested their manual skills and took up challenges such as building a Da Vinci Bridge, building a polygon for a ball, and experimenting with water. They also built a camp in the forest and were very persistent in lighting the fire without matches.
In the guest book at the Franja Hospital there was a quote by a past student visitor: “How could they be so smart in those times?”. Let this be a cue to talk about the real nature of meaning of learning, skills, school, real-life problems and sustainable development.
