This week 9R have boarded the Hogwarts Express at Platform 9 3/4 and made the journey to Hogwarts. When we arrived we each took our turn and the Sorting Hat decided which house we would be in and who our head of house would be. Our first task was to complete our house badge working as a team, selecting the correct colours and working together complete the task. On Tuesday we had Potions with Professor Clarke, which was lots of fun. We all had a turn mixing colours in pairs and seeing what would happen to the potion.

On Wednesday we went to Ollivander’s wand shop with Professor Bigio to get our wands.  On Thursday we took part in mindfulness yoga which encouraged us to use our muscles and our brain and set us all up for a good days work

Ravenclaw are house of the week for showing great teamwork, friendship and overall enthusiasm in class - well done.

Our Star of the Week this week is Tyler for great enthusiasm in all his work and sharing fantastic Harry Potter knowledge.

I wonder what magical lessons we’ll be taking part in next week.
