  Once again, we will be celebrating Roald Dahl Day by studying his books, and completing lots of fun activities.

   

  On Wednesday 13th September, children are invited to come to school dressed as their favourite Roald Dahl character. There will be a prize for the best dressed class, and the prize will be ‘whoopsy-splunkers’ as the BFG would say!
