Frittole Making Class

Learn how to make homemade Italian Frittole with Paula Calabro on Wednesday 28th August. Paula is closely affiliated with St. Fidelis, having sent her own children here (back in the day) and now a proud Nonna to her grandchildren at our school. Paula runs Frittole making classes at the Veneto Club and we are lucky enough to have her share her expertise with our school community.

Only $30 per person, limited to 22 people per class, tickets have been released on QuickCliq.

• Venue: St. Fidelis Staffroom. 
• Start time: 7pm. 
• Finish time: Approximately 8:30pm.

Paula will teach the craft of Frittole making followed by taste testing (YUM!) and each person who attends will also leave with their very own batter of Frittole to make at home. A glass of champagne provided on arrival, too! We hope to see you there!
