On the Thursday of Outings’ Week, eleven Muggles (nine Juniors along with Professors Hayward and Jacklin) were transported by the Purcell Bus to Warner Bros Studios in Leavesden for a fun-filled foray around the two studios that now house the Harry Potter film exhibitions. The visit was arranged to tie in with the students’ English lessons which this term are based on Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone.
The exhibitions clearly cast their magic spells on the children who had a spellbinding time seeing all the props, costumes and sets that were used in all of the eight films. When asked for her comment on the (non-alcoholic!) Butter Beer sampled at lunchtime Alexandra replied, “Mmmm!” Sometimes only one word will do!
A fantastic day was had by all with many of the children saying that the highlight of their day was seeing the magnificent miniature model of Hogwart’s Castle covered in snow.
