Did You Know?
Braces, or suspenders, were almost universally worn due to the high cut of men's trousers. Belts did not become common until the 1920s. — MJ
Had it really come to this? Passing Charles Macmillan back and forth like an upright booby prize?

ACAB | REP ANY | SCHOOL EVENT

What: Hogwarts Study Week
Who: Hosted by the House Matrons in connection with the student book club, all students are invited to study for exams together in this annual end of term event.
Cost: N?A
Where: Spare Hogwarts classroom in the corridor leading to the library
Why: For students to study and to foster house relationships
When: May 14-18, 21-22

Hogwarts House matrons annually set up evening study sessions at the end of the year with clubs rotating each year in who helps them. This year it is the Hogwarts Book club. Tea and treats have been provided for the students as well as a stack of novels for a study break. There are comfortable study areas for individual study and a parlor set up for students who would like to study in a group. Matrons will be rotating through to assist students. Study each night will focus on the subject of the O.W.L. and N.E.W.T exam the following day, but help will be available for all students in any subject.

Of course with this many students in one area something is bound to happen. There will be an open suggestionizer thread for each of these incidents open to 2-3 students, but feel free to post your own corresponding thread up too.

Sunday, May 14: Charms and D.A.D.A.
An overzealous fifth year is practicing a windy charm and accidently sets a mini cyclone flying through the room. Paper, books, pillows, rugs, cups of tea, scones and biscuits are hurling through the air in the middle of a studious beginning.

Monday, May 15: Astronomy and Charms
A N.E.W.T. level student's charm accidently enchants all the teacups in the room to grow legs and begin to run around the room. They seem particularly interested in the telescopes set up by the windows and in sloshing tea on star maps.

Tuesday, May 16: D.A.D.A and Herbology
Professor Skeeter has been kind enough to loan several snargaluff stumps for seventh years to practice on, as well several other plants, the problem is boggart has also been brought for D.A.D.A. practice and disguised itself as one of the stumps. No one is sure which is which or who is scared of a snargaluff stump - my guess is it's own of the seventh years.

Wednesday, May 17: Herbology and History of Magic
Who let the bouncing bulbs out? Who? Who? Who let the bouncing bulbs out?

Thursday, May 18: History of Magic and Potions
Someone's Draught of the Living Dead has gone horribly wrong and splattered everyone near by, boils are quick to show up on the skin.

Sunday, May 21: Potions and Transfiguration
It turns out Potions and Transfiguration shouldn'tt mix. Someone's spell has gone rouge and hit the center of a boiling cauldron in the row set up by the windows. Not only does this cauldron transform into a peweter ball it rolls into the next one, knocking it over, until the whole row of cauldrons and their contents are flying and spilling all over the room. The initial potion has flew into the air in a great display of sparks and fireworks, showering the whole room with a Befuddlement Darught.

Monday, May 22: Transfiguration and Astronomy
Slippers seem so cozy and nice, but when they are only particially transfigured from rabbits there's always a chance that they'll nibble your toes. Multiple practice rabbits have wriggled free from practicing students and are hopping around in various states of transfiguration as they look to nibble toes and papers. Guard your star starts older students!
