Class 5a of the Primary School Insel in Basel had professional support. Together with the chef and the team of the Hotel Courtyard Basel, the children were able to organize a complete lunch menu for the guests of the hotel restaurant on November 23rd. Seasonal and regional, according to these principles the students prepare the menus themselves. In addition, they designed matching placemats and took over the service. The young cooks are delighted to welcome guests who were impressed by the quality and creativity of a climate-friendly lunch menu - nut salad with walnuts and pear cubes, pumpkin escalope with sweet potatoes and fried mushrooms, vermicelles mousse.
Climate Cookies for Uganda
Visitors to the Christmas market in Zurich Oerlikon can also try out culinary climate protection. The school class of teacher Maria Schocher from the Schauenberg School in Affoltern has produced fine and sustainable cookies and matching individual labels. The Courtyard Hotel Zürich Nord provided its kitchen for the elaborate production of goods. The cookies are sold for a good cause at the Courtyard Hotel's stand at the Oerlik Christmas Market (December 1 and 2). All the proceeds from the sales will go to the myclimate climate protection project "Clean drinking water for schools and households through filter systems".
