I half wondered if we might see you this afternoon, but apparently not. I do hope you made good use of your time, however you spent it. As you weren’t there, though, I do have a teensy question.
As you may have heard, part of our revised plans for this year involves making sure our students stay absolutely fit. I’m sure Rabastan will appreciate it - Rolanda was telling me that a number of his classes rely on that sort of thing. Now, I’d looked at scheduling some sessions on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 7am, and then Sunday mornings at 8.
But I understand from a comment - young Mr Marvolo, so polite - that the fifth years have a midnight astronomy session with you on Wednesday nights, and so they’re rarely in bed before half past one? Goodness, I had no idea you taught so late. Surely there must be some better solution, that would allow you and your students to not need to be up at all hours, and would let them do their part to be the greatest possible help to the programme. Do have a word with Septima or Minerva, or whoever needs, and I’ll be glad to back you up.
Do let me know when we can start our little morning sessions properly, hmm? Dolores
