November Newsletter!
We're already into the middle month of the first Term!.
House News
As a reminder, every common room must be signed up for separately from the main HOL Forums. You can join every common room, though you will only have full access to your own House's forums. There are still many fun things you can do when visiting others though!
Gryffindor
Gryffindor wraps up their Gryfftoberfest and starts Gone Questing up again in November. A new theme will be announced for their magazine, The Pawprint.
Hot off the press: They also celebrate a minor revamp at the start of November, including the return of Rubies (their internal points)! Check out their Rubies!
Slytherin
As of November 1st, Slytherin will have just finished up Slythoween. Soon you can go check how many Scales (internal House points) you earned! They are having the Harry Potter Read-Along with tasks and trivia. They've also got the Puzzle Exchange and Gobstones Club where you can enjoy different things to do and earn Scales at the same time.
Ravenclaw
As always, Ravenclaw has their debate questions and folks from all Houses are welcome to come give their opinions. (Debate Club). The Trick or Treat in the Nest activity has just finished and, in November, they are having a Magizoologist training camp put on by Alexander Brighton and Hannah R. Thomas. It's an activity for just Eagles. The Alte deadline for December will also be due on November 30.
Hufflepuff
Our very own Fumbly is hosting an event in November which is close to the hearts of every Badger -- it involves FOOD. Everyone is invited to come to the Sett for GOOD FOOD! It's starting soon ... if she can get Parker away from the kitchen! But yes, there will be Diamonds (internal House points) to be had! Visit the Games Tent -- aka DoHGaS (Huffle Department of Games and Sports) and see what new opportunities to earn Diamonds are there for you!
