🍫 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Day! 🍭
Thursday Year 3 was filled with pure imagination as they celebrated Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Day. Children arrived in fantastic costumes—from Oompa Loompas to Willy Wonka—and took part in creative writing, art, drama and design challenges inspired by the story. A truly scrumdiddlyumptious day for everyone! 🍬✨
