WANNABE wizards and potential princesses got the chance to dress as their favourite book characters at a Spa school.

Pupils at St Joseph's First School, Ombersley Way, joined teachers during the event to celebrate the school's book fair on November 11.

Deputy headteacher Marion Macbeth said: "It was a very successful day and a great success. A lot of enthusiasm for reading was generated and it also helped to boost school funds. Teachers and pupils dressed up together. It was really nice and great fun as well," she added.
