Dahlicious Dress Up




Roald Dahl Day

Friday 13th September 2019


St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School, Highgate, celebrated Roald Dahl Day with a dazzling display of costumes. Every year we celebrate the birthday of the World’s No.1 Story-teller with our children coming to school dressed as their favourite characters from Roald Dahl’s stories. It was a ‘whizzpopper’ celebration with fun quizzes, games and costume prizes.


The children had an opportunity to parade their costumes in a whole-school assembly. Each class had the daunting task of selecting the best costumes which were awarded ‘Willy Wonka Golden Ticket’ style book vouchers. All the winners are invited to our Book Fair next month when they will exchange their Golden Tickets for a book of their choice.

The children showed amazing creativity in both their choice of characters and in hand-making their costumes. We had children coming as Roald Dahl himself and one child even came as the actual book ‘The BFG’!! Of course, we also had a troop of Fantastic Mr Foxes and numerous Mr and Mrs Twits.
