Image of Harry Potter Celebration!

Ms Hockey, our amazing Librarian, ran a superb Harry Potter Form Quiz for our Year 7 students as a brilliant way to celebrate 25 years of Harry Potter magic! Well done to everyone that took part, and especially for those winning students.


Doodling Along with Jonny Duddle!


What’s it like to make a living just by drawing and doodling?
We asked the Illustrator Jonny Duddle who has spent his life doing just that!

Jonny is most well-known for creating the iconic cover for Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s stone. He explained how he created each character using pencil and paper before scanning them and editing digitally. A selection of Year 7 students joined Jonny for an extra special online zoom session to celebrate 25 years of Harry Potter magic. They discussed Jonny’s processes, his route into illustration and all the other Harry Potter books he has illustrated.

Students also got the chance to illustrate their own Hagrid, as Jonny challenged them to draw alongside him!

All the drawings were pretty good! Can you tell which one is Jonny’s?
