During recess on Monday and Thursday, the boys can visit **six different stations to try out different activities based on six Roald Dahl story books. We will also be doing ***activities in class. And...there will be lollipops and trophies to be won!

Here are the details:

*Costume Parade
What the boys could do over the weekend:
1. Read the story book 'Fantastic Mr Fox' by Roald Dahl.
2. Create a costume using recycled materials based on any character in any Roald Dahl story book.

On Monday morning, I will select five representatives from our class to participate in the Costume Parade. All five representatives will receive a lollipop each. From the five, I will select one best costume, and the boy will be awarded a trophy. During assembly in Week 1 Term 2, this boy will wear his costume and go on stage to receive his trophy.
