“Sylvie was our teacher (and she really made the experience brilliant!) We were lucky to have nobody else in the class, so we got lots of help and had a great chat getting to know her. She answered all our questions and told some great stories about her memories of making pierogi with her mum and grandma! She was also kind enough to talk through our plans for the rest of our day and trip, and gave us some brilliant recommendations for things to do.
