2016 marks 100 years since the birth of Roald Dahl - the world's number one storyteller. On Tuesday 13th September we shared in the biggest ever global celebration and dressed up as our favourite characters. Coming through Burrenreagh's school gates we had Matilda, Willy Wonka, Mrs Twit and even the BFG made an appearance. Roald Dahl Headquarters sent us a 'Party Pack' with lots of activities including word searches, crosswords, colouring in sheets, quizzes and even an activity whereby we had to 'Pin the Newt on Miss Trunchbull!'. During the many fun activities we listened to the audiobook of 'Matilda' and we also had the opportunity to take part in the BFG Draw-Along with Quentin Blake (illustrator). We invited our friends from Primary 6/7 over to our classroom for a movie afternoon on Friday 16th September in which we watched 'Matilda' on the big screen. Happy 100th Birthday Roald Dahl! Check out our photos... WOW!
