Brew Green: Coffee Upcycling Workshop

On 5 March 2026, the Outstanding Student Academy hosted “Brewing Green: Coffee Upcycling Workshop” at the Communal Hall, Hung Hom Hall. The event began with a presentation by the Academy’s ExCo members, introducing the Academy's work on sustainability, circular economy fundamentals, Hong Kong’s Waste Blueprint, local recycling initiatives, and how these efforts connect to the Sustainable Development Goals.

The hands-on workshop then turned coffee grounds into eco-friendly products. In small groups, students made coffee fragrance pendants using Makko powder and natural coffee ground body scrubs with coconut oil and brown sugar.

It was a meaningful opportunity for students to learn how small, creative actions can support a more circular and sustainable future.
