Harry Potter Night 2022
Muggles and would be wizards gathered at Chew Valley Library to board the Hogwarts Express to Hogwarts. During their journey they explored the many different kinds of magical transportation found within the Harry Potter stories before taking part in a potion making session……….Colour changing bat broth!
The library café was also transported into The Leaky Cauldron café – as found in the Harry Potter stories.
Using pipettes the school of wizards experimented with liquids and paste. Making different coloured potions to which they added material ingredients to complete their potions. Finally with their jars labelled and decorated they were ready to take home to cast a spell!
