Congratulations you’ve been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardy! Even though we are still waiting for our letter to arrive (we’re definitely not bitter at all about it...), we are happy that you’ve been accepted!
Now, it’s time to be your own Hermione and get everything ready and organised, so you can have a stress-free start at Hogwarts. Not sure what you’ll need? We’ve put together all the essentials below, so you can tick them off as you purchase them at Diagon Alley.
Muggles tend to have cats or dogs as their animal companions, however, in the Wizarding World, you won’t find your average household pets keeping wizards company. Instead, you’ll find giant Boarhounds, twiggy tree-guardians, snowy owls and even half horse, half eagle creatures – you name it!
If you want to explore the wonders of the Wizarding World, do it the right way. As they say in the muggle world, if you visit London, you’ll have to move around like Londoners do, this means by their underground tube or on double-decker red buses – the same applies in the magical world. However, in the Wizarding World, there are plenty of options to choose from, so you must choose Weasley (alternatively, have fun and try them all!
Today, every Potterhead is united in the remembrance of those who fought in The Battle of Hogwarts, an important day that showed the courage and bravery of many wizards who stood against Voldermort and his army.
