Choosing a Character

We've had a two year hiatus from the dress up capers of book week at Aranda Primary School.




Ella dressed up as Mollie from The Wishing Chair and although she really likes all of Enid Blytons books I think her decision was based on finding someone with blonde hair! We pulled together Ella's costume with minimal purchases - white polo top ($4 from target) and a black t-shirt looking vest ($3 from Salvos). I made the white apron and the rest came from Ella's wardrobe.

Katy was fairly indecisive. We threw around various characters before she decided on EJ12 - a code cracking girl hero. Although EJ12 has many outfits, Katy chose her costume from book #3 In the Dark. It was super easy which is what we love! All black, with a flashlight and a black bum bag (borrowed from Nana).














Due to more wet weather the book week parade was held across the hall and gym. There were some very interesting and entertaining costumes worn by both teachers and students. Fun had by all but glad it's over for another year.
