Dear members,
Our club is holding a cookie-baking day on Wednesday, 25 March, from 2.30 p.m. to 5.00 p.m. We were going to use the canteen, but it is being painted, so we are meeting in the Kemahiran Hidup workshop instead. Puan Noraini, our club advisor, is going to show us how to make almond London cookies.
Every member has to bring an apron and a plastic container. You don't have to bring flour or sugar because the club will buy them. If you have long hair, you should tie it up.
