Get writing

Every 1 September, Harry Potter fans around the world mark the moment students head back to Hogwarts. Here's some wizardry inspiration to get your quill dancing: 

  • Which Hogwarts house would you be sorted into – Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff?
  • If you could bring one magical creature to Hogwarts, which would you choose: an owl, cat, toad or rat?
  • Share a magical adventure – real or imagined – with friends or family.
