on 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray Triple Play and DVD on the 2nd December, Warner
Home Video and Sainsbury’s offered one lucky person the chance to win a
visit to their secondary school from Rupert Grint. Almost 2000 schools
were entered into the competition which is a massive 42% of all eligible
schools in the UK.

The winning school Bishop Walsh
Roman Catholic School in Sutton Coldfield kept the visit a secret from
pupils and revealed the surprise in a special assembly in the lead up to
the Christmas break.

One of the stars of
the worlds most success film franchise, Rupert Grint visited the school
along with co star Oliver Phelps on the morning of the 13th December for an exclusive Q&A and personal delivery of copies of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows ’ Part 2″ on Blu-ray.

Sarah Bird, Director
of Marketing for Warner Home Video UK commented “We are delighted to
have partnered with Sainsbury’s to give the pupils and teachers of the
winning school Bishop Walsh Roman Catholic School the opportunity for
Rupert Grint and Oliver Phelps to visit them. They all had a day to
remember and magical memories to share with their children in years to
come!”
