The Future of Food - world of tomorrow

Inspired by the Ikea SPACE10 project, 24 Primary school students from Motcombe followed up a previous visit to the Future Classroom with a cooking experience. 

Mr. Dines from Motcombe brought his Year 5 class to Shaftesbury School to work on future solutions to food shortages. The students were tasked with solving some complex problems, such as; What will we eat in the future? How will we feed a growing population? 

The solution was bugs, mealworms, crickets, and insect solutions that are high in protein and sustainable. Students came into our professional kitchen with Chef Clive and 8 student helpers from Shaftesbury School to make their creations into a reality, yuk! They had to eat them too.
