The party-goers enjoyed having their special wand ‘choose them’, making origami owls and picking out some Harry Potter sweet treats like chocolate frogs and Dumbledore’s sherbet lemons. There was obviously a photo opportunity waiting for them with Gilderoy Lockhart’s book signing event as well as in Diagon Alley itself! Some funny ‘blind’ stories were created, and a quiz was completed over some Harry Potter snacks.

The students, helpers and staff all thoroughly enjoyed themselves until it came to saying farewell to Niharika and Sanjana who have been running our weekly Book Club for nearly two years. They have been devoted to our weekly meetings and have consistently shared their knowledge and enthusiasm with our book clubbers. They will be sadly missed, but we wished them both well in their upcoming A-Level examinations and for their bright futures.
