Three students at Plympton Academy have been awarded with a copy of Roald Dahl’s final book after impressing with their own Dahl character.
Roald Dahl was born on September 13 1916 – so each year, people mark this day to commemorate his life and achievements!
To celebrate this year’s Roald Dahl Day, students at Plympton Academy were asked to create their own character inspired by his books.
As a result three students, Logan Corry (Yr8), Adam Corley (Yr7) and Riley Shaw-Smith (Yr 7) have been awarded a copy of Billy & The Minpins as a prize.
This was Roald Dahl’s final book after an illustrious literary career, spanning almost half a century, during which he wrote 19 novels and 13 collections of stories.
Assistant Principal Sarah Glover said:
“Roald Dahl’s books continue to entertain and delight children of all ages and it is always a joy to mark Roald Dahl Day in school. The students created delightful new characters and now have a new Roald Dahl story to enjoy!”
