World Book Week: Badgemore Primary School

Badgemore Primary School, Henley: children dressed up as words as diverse as “bacon”, “languages”, and “doodle”. Cathy McCarthy, who teaches a year 4 and 5 class, said: “We wanted to have a slight twist on the usual dressing up as a character as well as give the children an opportunity to increase their vocabulary. In class, we’ve been covering synonyms and antonyms.” Miss McCarthy herself dressed as Stanley Yelnats from Louis Sachar’s Holes
