Coincidentally, Sky News has just published a report from Environment Secretary Owen Paterson, which explores the way that we eat food that is imported that could actually be produced within the UK.
"As British farmers and food producers you know that we grow some of the best food in the world here - so why is 24% of the food eaten in the UK imported when it could be produced here ?"
What are the benefits of continuing to import this food rather than produce it in the UK - are there very good reasons why we don't actually do that?
Could also discuss the role of supermarkets in promoting (or reducing) food waste.
And also the fact that Prince William is doing a course in agricultural management at the University of Cambridge
Finally, we will be connecting the work that we do with the Year 7 effort on FOOD BANKs.
This is a reminder of the foods that we are asking students at King's to bring in during this term, and in particular during the week that each house has been allocated...
