Beech School Trip to the Harry Potter Museum
We were given a passport that we could stamp (if the lines weren’t too long). Then had photo which looked as if we were flying on Nimbus (Harry’s quidditch broom stick). One of favourite bits was when the dragon appeared at the back of a destroyed Gringotts Wizarding Bank! We got such a fright we ran screaming 🙂
