World Book day approaches...be prepared!


As I work in a school I tend to get distracted this time of year as I know World Book Day approaches and I need to get a costume done during half term or it just doesn't happen.
This year, due to a thought it would be good to combine uses for a costume, I have decided on Professor McGonagall and then I will have a witch robe that can be used for a performance!


I have loads of green poly twill as we bought a roll for the dwarves in Snow White (it also came in handy for hoods for Robin Hood but still loads left over).  Unfortunately it looks a bit boring but I am sure with a little effort I can spruce it up a bit.
It would appear the KS1 adults may be borrowing some of the Robin Hood costumes as they like to have a ‘themed’ approach, but the KS2 tend to go for the ‘anything goes’ method and I am in with that lot.  I did ask the year 6 kids if I should go for McGonagall and they all eagerly said yes so I suppose I am now committed, although it would have been so easy to be ‘The bad tempered Ladybird’ in my red with black polka dots dress!  I do live in Norfolk though and it would have to be the Bad Tempered Bishy Barnabee which is how ladybirds are known locally!
