The next Quidditch match, between Ravenclaw and Gryffindor, will take place Saturday, 3 December, at 9:00 PM HOL-time. Join #quidditch for the match and #grandstand to cheer.

Headmaster Dybendahl wishes to mention that (as stated in the HOL Handbook) "students who have not earned any points in the past 90 days will not count for the house multiplier, but the old points stay. As soon as more points have been awarded, this student will count again for the house multiplier. There are no exceptions, and the whole procedure is fully automated." More information can be found in this post on the main HOL forum.

Prof. Rictusempra invites all students to send her their holiday carols!

Issue nineteen of Gryffindor House's newspaper, The Paw Print, is now online!
