Rowena Weasley's charming owl dropped a package off for me last week--check out all the goodies on my blog. A million thanks, Rowena!!!
Woo!! Violette Black sent me the most awesome kit! Check it out here at my blog for more pictures!
THANK YOU I LOVE IT ALL!!!
Hello, students!!!
I know that every house has a flurry of activities going on as we all pack and clean our rooms before summer arrives. Though this was a rather rocky term I hope that you all had a fabulous time! This term marked the first time when we scheduled school wide meet ups and judging from the blog postings the meetups went well. I know that it's always nice to put a face to a name.
As we close up the school year, please be extra dilligent in communicating with your Head Girls and letting them know when you will be sending your kits if you have not done so already. Please also remember that Delivery Confirmation is required. We haven't had any lost packages yet this term, but this is the only way for us to make sure that you sent your package. No delivery confirmation and no received package will result in not being allowed to participate in future swaps.
As of right now these are the standings on sent packages per House:
Hufflepuff - 65%
Ravenclaw - 76%
Slytherin - 80%
As some of you are aware - HSKS 8 will be themed Summer Camp and promises to be rather different than our regular terms. There will be no Quidditch (though we may come up with a comparable substitute), no Dueling Club, and there will be no S.P.E.W. There will be meetups for the Half-Blood Prince viewing. There will be ROAK, and there will be one optional swap long competition that includes a traveling box of items. There will also be assigned mixed housing cabin mates. A lower kit minimum and maximum. Other plans are in the works and the HSKS8 blog will be updated as ideas come to fruition.For those of you on Facebook, there is also a link to the Facebook HSKS group. This is just another way for us to communicate and interact in a fun way. The membership is closed, so if you would like to join the group you have to send a request to do so. I believe there should be a link to the right of the page. Let me know if you have problems.
I hope to see many of you at Summer Camp!!
A tired little owl arrived at Wychwood House today, read all about it over here.
I got a great package from Lily of Flitwick earlier this week and this is the first that I have had time to post. There are pictures on my blog. Thanks Lily!
Replace each number with the corresponding word you wrote on your blog/homework earlier this week and post this story as a blog... and hey, if you do it Sunday instead of today, you'll have posted a blog for the last week of the term! :-) Woo Hoo! I'll be looking at all the stories and will post the top two or three after our Head Girl Wisty and fellow Prefect Hermione and I all vote on them.
While waiting for our train to Diagon Alley, we chatted with 7 and 8 who were planning to visit Gringott’s. 8 did not want to go alone because he/she was collecting a 9 and that was very 10 and brought 7 along for their excellence in protecting spells.
The train arrived and off we went. Our seats were very comfortable and the train sped along towards Diagon Alley and we were there in a flash! Before heading to the Yrsa’s Yarn Shoppe, we went into a 11 that sells the 12 13(s)!!! As we neared the 11, we noticed quite a lot of commotion! The 11 owner had set the 13-making machine and it had gotten stuck! 13 (s) were 14 everywhere! I ducked as a cream-filled 13 came 14 right at me and it 15 into 16Professor ___ ’s 17 just as they walked through the door! A 18 13 did a nose dive and splattered all over the 19 most elaborately! We made it out of the store just as a 13 frog and a kettle of Bertie Bott’s every flavor beans collided in a rainstorm of goo!
Since we were still 20, we walked the 21 blocks over to Florean Fortescue’s Ice Cream Parlor! I decided on a cone with 22 ice cream and 2 got the hot fudge sundae with extra 23 (s)! Yummy! 16Professor had made their way over here as well after the incident at the 13 shoppe and had chosen a 24 float.
After that, we passed Gringott’s and headed to Yrsa’s Yarn Shoppe! I tried not to look at the beautiful skeins of silk and bamboo and wool and instead, headed toward the 3 while 2 stopped to 25 the stitch markers. I found a 26 3 made out of steel and made my purchase. 2 kept hedging between the 3 she came for and a pattern for a 27. She chose the 27 pattern and we walked the back towards the train station just in time to make the 12:30 train.
After sitting down, we noticed 7 and 8 were on the train as well. 8 looked quite 28 to have the 9 with them. 7 however did not look 28 ed at all. While waiting to go into the vault, a baby goblin waiting in line with his Mommy, had 29 on 7 getting 30 all over their clean robes! The smell really was just horrendous! Apparently, 7 ’s protecting spells don’t work well against 30!! We made our way to a less smelly compartment and talked about how we were going explain missing Professor 31 ’s lecture on the valuable ways 32 (s) are working with the Department of Mysteries in solving unsolvable 33 (s)!
I came home today to find a lovely package from Helen Lovegood. Pictures posted here.
Many thanks from Patonga!
HSKS7 is unfortunately coming to an end (only 9 days). This term has been, without a doubt, the best yet at Hogwarts. I hope everyone has had fun and will be coming back for HSKS8 (Summer Camp! Swimming, fishing, charms - does it get any better? Maybe with S'mores).
I'd like to remind everyone of the continuing need for contributions to angel kits. Of course, we aren't anticipating actually needing angel kits, right? Right?
If you are able to help out with items for angel kits, I would appreciate receiving your contributions by the end of April. We are in need of all of the elements of an swap kit plus other fun goodies. A suggestion was made that a yarn and pattern could be substituted for an actual knit item. Please PM or email me for the address where to send the items, or if you have any questions about what is still needed. All contributions will be appreciated, particularly by those who will receive them.
And special thanks to everyone who has already offered to help. I know who you are!
Just a quick reminder about this weeks Ravenclaw HomeworkLink back to the original homework post
We'll post the top two or three "stories" on HSKS so that everyone can partake in the laughter!
Violet's owl landed today, and I had to send him to the infirmary--the package he was carrying was so heavy, it almost killed the poor bird! Please come visit my royal castle to see the amazing kit she bestowed upon me! Thank you Violet--you're awesome!
Today a very tired owl brought me a package from the US to Germany. Have a look at my blog to see what the wonderful Pandora Phelps sent me
