REVOLTILICIOUS ROALD DAHL DAY!


After studying a unit on a signicant children's author, 2nd October saw the Year 5 classes dress up as their favourite Roald Dahl characters. The adults got in on the act as well.


Do you recognise these characters?



Parents were invited to join a Literacy lesson where stories in the style of Roald Dahl were being written. Some parents may have felt as if they had gone back in time as the  lessons were taught by witches.
The Wicked Witch?
                                            
The Good Witch?
 
The Kind Witch?

The main task was to proof read and edit the story and then complete it with the help of the parent.  Both parents and pupils found this to be an enjoyable and useful activity.









The highlight of the day was the eating.....eating the revolting dishes that Year 5 created.
 
 




 
 
Please be reassured that no child was harmed in the taste testing! There were a few grimaces but most of the dishes turned out to be quite delicious, even the Mayo and Ketchup Chilli cake.
