PUPILS from Eastwood Primary School in Keighley were among more than 100 women and girls who donned their red shoes for a flashmob inspired by Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz.

The impromptu performance in the centre of Bradford was held as part of a weekend-long Born in Bradford Family Festival

The troupe, led by Glinda, the Good Witch of the North, skipped and danced its way through the Mirror Pool in a five-minute display organised by the Irregular (Arts) group, based in Shipley, to mark the 75th anniversary of the classic film starring Judy Garland.

Other attractions at the festival included a giant digger, photo booth, magical monsters, tooth fairy and teddy bear trails.

The festival was organised to give thanks to those who were involved in the Born in Bradford project, which started in 2007 to track the lives of 13,500 babies and their families from different cultures and backgrounds.

Dr Rosie McEachan, Born in Bradford programme manager, said: "It's been an amazing turnout.

"It's about us giving our thanks to those who have been involved in the study and to the people of Bradford."
