In this month’s newsletter I am very sad to announce that Carolié and her husband will be leaving South Africa to join their children in New Zealand in October this year. Therefore, Foodlink Cookery school, which has been in operation for 35 years, will come to an end.
The good news is that Carolié has put together an exciting program for the next few months with some of her most popular cooking demonstrations and hands-on courses as well as a few brand new ones. The grand finale will take place on Saturday, 30th July. This will be the last time that Carolié will be doing these courses in South Africa, so be sure to book early to secure your seats for these events! It is also your last chance to invite Carolié to visit your area to present her courses.
