Roald Dahl Story Day
On September 13th the world celebrates the birthday of the illustrious author of so many unforgettable works of fiction, including The BFG, The Twits, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Fantastic Mr Fox, and Matilda.
Roald Dahl Story Day is an annual celebration of the work of Roald Dahl when schools in the UK take part to celebrate and fundraise for Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity.
This year, CM2, CM1, CE2 and CE1 joined in the celebrations. Children were asked to come to school dressed as their favourite Roald Dahl character. There were Roald Dahl learning activities such as painting in the style of Quentin Blake (illustrator for Roald Dahl), reading comprehensions, word searches, writing activities and treasure hunts. Everybody including the teachers had a fun day !
