New Theme, New Novel

24th Jan 2025

Primary 4/5 are delighted with their new set of class novels, James and the Giant Peach written by Roald Dahl. 

James Henry Trotter lives with two ghastly aunts. Aunt Sponge is enormously fat with a face that looks boiled and Aunt Spiker is bony and screeching. He's very lonely until one day something peculiar happens. At the end of the garden a peach starts to grow and GROW AND GROW. Inside that peach are seven very unusual insects - all waiting to take James on a magical adventure. But where will they go in their GIANT PEACH and what will happen to the horrible aunts if they stand in their way? There's only one way to find out...

The novel connects with their new theme 'Food Glorious Food'. Over the coming weeks Primary 4/5 will explore food from around the world, healthy options and the importance of a balanced diet.
