    When it is summer in the light...


    • Apparition studies have begun for the older students who hope to achieve their license without losing a limb.

      Headmaster LeBeau has an altogether unconventional way of teaching healing, which like the profession, is not for the faint-hearted.

      As March closes, Hogwarts Staff have quite a number of matters on their minds, along with those impending exams after the Spring Holiday.
