Bon soir, mes amis!
Sep. 15th, 2011 09:54 pmI hope everyone's year is off to a good start, so far.
Our lessons are certainly keeping us busy. Everyone here is trying to guess who'll be able to come to England for the Tri-Wizard Tournament. They've told us that we have to sit some exams next week and inspectors from the French Ministry are coming to observe some of our lessons. Then we'll be told who's been selected. They're taking it all jolly seriously, I must say.
But I say, we did find out that P Froissart is going to be the chaperon for the journey. Draco, I daresay you already knew that, what? Of course it makes perfect sense, doesn't it, that he'd be the one to go. Of course, I hope I'm selected now, in particular, because he's one of our best professors (not that any of our professors are especially bad!). But he's also one of the kindest--I mean, about my being English, that is. We're to have another Professor filling in for his subject, naturally, but it shan't be the same, whomever it is.
Here as there, we're fairly certain that few of us in the middle years have much chance at being named Champion. That's why P Froissart told us it's more about the interactions among the three schools than the competition itself. I jolly well hope he means it! Otherwise it might be a very boring year, once everyone goes.
Oh, and I saw that you're holding a French club of sorts, if I've got that right. Good show! Draco's right; it does rather make a difference. But I also wanted to offer, that if anyone would like to ask questions about Beauxbatons, I'd be happy to answer them before the group arrives.
