Rupert Grint: School’s in Session!

» December 13 by Majbritt in HP News, Rupert News with 5 Comments

December 13th, 2011, 5:22PM– Tuesday morning turned out to be quite a day for all the pupils at a school in Sutton Coldfield, UK. They got a surprise visit from none other than two of the Harry Potter series’ Weasley boys, Rupert Grint and Oliver Phelps.

The reason behind this visit was the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 online competition from Warner Bros and Sainsbury where a lucky winner could get a surprise appearance by Rupert Grint in school. The lucky winner was the 17 year old Sarah Cotter – and not only did all the pupils at Bishop Walsh School get this extraordinary day at school with Rupert Grint and the surprise guest Oliver Phelps – the entire school also received a copy of the Deathly Hallows Part 2. The two participated in a panel chat and signed copies of the last Harry Potter film.

What a day, huh? :-)

You can see a short interview with Rupert and Oliver from BBC here. Also, you can see a lot of cool pictures from the event in our Gallery here. Enjoy! :-)

    The happy boy in the background looks like a young version of Ron Weasley.
