Winnie and Wilbur: Sports Day Activity Sheet

Winnie and Wilbur are taking part in the local witches’ sports day. After training hard in their garden, finally the big day arrives. There is a high jump contest, an egg-and-spoon race, and even a cats’ tree climb race – but the main event is the exciting broomstick obstacle race. Winnie and Wilbur are desperate to finally win it this year having lost out to Maryam and her cat Malak the last two years. But when the referee is about to read out the results, a gust of wind blows them away! Will the witches ever find out who won – or could they discover that perhaps it doesn’t matter who won when you’re having this much fun? A spellbindingly sporty story that will have readers rooting for Winnie and Wilbur as they loop the loop and soar high in the sky. Korky Paul’s intricate and spellbinding artwork is full of fun, mischief and mayhem! The best-selling Winnie and Wilbur series has been delighting readers both young and old since 1987 and Winnie and Wilbur have become favourite characters in homes and schools all over the world.
