Hillside Community First School pupils and staff entered into the spirit of Roald Dahl Day on 13 September by dressing up as their favourite character from the author’s books, or by simply coming dressed in yellow, Roald’s favourite colour.
During the day, which started with a Roald Dahl assembly, the children enjoyed themed activities, including a treasure hunt of curious facts about the author and his creations and finding your own Roald Dahl name – a “Whunking Fleshlumpeater” being one of them.
Each child was encouraged to make a donation to the Roald Dahl Marvellous Children’s Charity, which funds nurses, supporting seriously ill children and their families in the UK. The Verwood school raised £125.
