Harry Potter Week

13 November 2002

The week included a fancy dress party, when the children held Quidditch Races on their broomsticks and feasted on cauldron cakes, and a trip to Epping Forest, inspired by Harry's adventures in the woods at Hogwarts. Other highlights of the week were a vote on the scariest moment in The Philosopher's Stone, a visit to London Zoo to see the most beastly snakes, and hat and wand making for the essential wizard's wardrobe.
