A magical school adventure perfect for kids and nostalgic adults alike.

The School of Magical Animals (2021) invites you into a world where magic meets everyday school life. Imagine Harry Potter meets Paddington Bear but set in a German primary school. A shy new student, a quirky teacher, and yes, talking magical animals who help their chosen kids deal with everyday struggles. It’s heartwarming, silly, and surprisingly wise. Oh, and the fox speaks. Enough said.

The sequel, The School of Magical Animals 2, released in 2022 in Germany, continues these charming, whimsical adventures. It’s available on Amazon Prime DE and might be rentable via Apple TV or Google Play depending on your region. Part 2, often searched as The School of Magical Animals: Part 2, is sometimes bundled with the first film in family streaming collections.

The first film came out in October 2021 in Germany, followed by part 2 in September 2022. Part 3 has been officially announced and is expected late 2024, though the exact date is still to be announced. There’s no word yet on a global Netflix release, but it may happen after part 3 drops as interest grows.
