  • Six Spectacular Sessions Schools Can Choose from a Morning Or an Afternoon Session; Each Session Lasts 90 Minutes
    Six Spectacular Sessions Schools can choose from a morning or an afternoon session; each session lasts 90 minutes. Sessions take place at 10.00am to 11.30am or 12.30pm to 2.00pm. We offer a choice of six sessions designed to fit in with the Primary Framework for literacy and the Secondary National Strategy. All sessions include an introductory talk about Roald Dahl and his writing hut, followed by time in the Museum to explore the galleries. The sessions are rounded off with a workshop. Details of the workshops are listed below together with the suggested age range. Wordplay by Dahl’s Chickens (or is it Charles Dickens?) Pupils will look at the ways Roald Dahl played with rhyme and humour and created his own Gobblefunk language. They will make up their own nonsensical vocabulary using examples from Roald Dahl's works as inspiration. Suitable for Years 3 to 6 (children aged 7 to 11) Crocky-Wock's Creative Characters Pupils will discover where Roald Dahl found inspiration for his wonderful characters. Just like Roald Dahl, they will use pictures of people as a starting point to create and bring to life their own bogtrotting baddy or gloriumptious goody. Suitable for Years 3 to 6 (children aged 7 to 11) Revolting Rhymes Pupils will look at the way Roald Dahl used rhymes in his poems and how he gave fairy tales a surprising twist. After some interactive storytelling, pupils will experiment with rhyming words to create other unexpected endings to traditional fairy stories. Suitable for Years 3 to 6 (aged 7 to 11) Matilda’s Top Tips Pupils will find out how Roald Dahl got his good ideas for stories.

'Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house in!' The little pig began to pray, But Wolfie blew his house away. He shouted, 'Bacon, pork and ham! Oh, what a lucky Wolf I am!' And though he ate the pig quite fast, He carefully kept the tail till last. Wolf wandered on, a trifle bloated. Surprise, surprise, for soon he noted Another little house for pigs, And this one had been built of TWIGS! 'Little pig, little pig, let me come in!' 'No, no, by the hairs on my chinny-chin-chin!'
