Not your typical "summer school!" This one promises lots of excitement
and magical surprises. Who wouldn't want to walk the halls with Harry
and attend this class schedule? No math offered here... you and your
classmates will enjoy courses just like in the Potter books and movies;
Astronomy, Magical Creatures, Divination, Herbology, History of Witches,
Potions and much, much, more. This "school" offers a living literature
program that immerses guests in a unique way. Unlike traditional school,
class time is not the only experience - guests will also enjoy
professional award-winning storytellers transporting you to a magical
place where hippogriffs and dragons rule, and where a poorly mixed
potion may even get you thrown in the dungeon! Also included is a
"Hogwarts-style" banquets and a field trip Chicago for a special visit

Harry Potter The Exhibition and to see
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince soon after its release!
