MONDAY Welcome to Wizarding School!
Congratulations – you’ve been accepted to Wizarding School! Now, it’s time to be sorted into your House and select your wand. Hurry, your first class is starting soon – Potions!

TUESDAY Wizarding School Play in a Day
You’ve read the books. You’ve seen the movies. Now it’s time to make your own Wizarding adventure story! Create and perform a Wizarding play in just ONE DAY. Spend the day collaborating on a story, creating characters, and memorizing lines. At the end of the day, perform for family and friends on stage!
> There will be a brief performance at 3:40pm.
WEDNESDAY Wizarding Classes 101
It’s time to hit the books – don’t worry, studying magic is fun! In Alchemy Class, transform, create, and combine as you learn about solids, liquids and gasses. Make gooey oobleck and smelly concoctions. Next, you’re off to Frog Choir – the most prestigious choir at Hogwarts! Sing your heart out and make your very own Magical Familiar frog sock puppet to sing along with you.
> There will be a brief demonstration of skills at 3:40pm.

THURSDAY Wizarding Transfiguration
Transform yourself and the world around you! Just like Professor McGonagall, transform yourself into a magical creature using stage makeup. Design your own wizard costume using scrap fabric and a little imagination. Think BIG as you transform the basement of SteppingStone into a Wizarding School for families to tour at the end of class.
> There will be a brief demonstration of skills at 3:40pm.
FRIDAY Wizarding Magizoology
“Magizoology” – The study of Fantastic Beasts! During class you’ll create fantastical masks and bring them to life through acting exercises. Beasts are not always as they seem to be; learn how light, reflection and refraction transforms these magical creatures. Later, animate your Patronus through the magic of shadow puppetry.
