To mark the end of term and completion of P5/6’s Harry Potter & the Philosopher’s Stone novel study, we had a Harry Potter party in clsss today.  Pupils entered their names into a wizard/witch name generator on www.harrypotter.bloomsbury.com and wrote their magical name onto a Hogwarts ID card.  They also took part in an online quiz to find their house and Patronus.

P5/6 tested their broomstick skills by calling “Up”.  It was amazing to see the broomsticks shooting upwards after only a few attempts.

We played a game where pupils had to get themselves into pairs to match a Harry Potter inspired word with its definition.

P5/6 learned Harry Potter jokes and riddles, matched characters to their correct houses, decorated their own house crests, made magical school signs – i.e. potions with professor snape, charms with professor flitwick etc.

Pupils were given the opportunity to dress up and we listened to Harry Potter music.

P5/6 also enjoyed an end-of-term treat of a choice of either a knickerbocker glory, chocolate ice cream or lemon ice lolly which were all mentioned in Harry Potter & the Philosopher’s Stone.

Please look at our broomstick skills.
