The goal of the Capsules PODS project is to reduce the community's ecological footprint by recycling Nespresso pods by reusing them after recovering the coffee grounds. The new pods are filled with fair-trade coffee purchased from a local coffee house and sold by the students to their parents, families and neighbours. During the lockdown, the students continue to collect the pods at home, and all project follow-ups are done online. One student event carried out tests by using the recovered coffee grounds as compost in his garden, with conclusive results!

The students are highly motivated to move forward with their project, as it has been well received by their teachers, parents and the community.
Students' families and school staff were asked to provide coffee pods to get the project started.
Education Through Entrepreneurial Spirit is excellent for integrating skills from the Preschool and elementary education program and the Secondary education program.
