Hogwarts SchoolHogward.I'm sure you will not believe that this castle even exist in real life. Hogwarts is somewhere inScotland. Hogwarts was founded around 990 A.D. by two wizards and two witches: Godric Gryffindor,Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Salazar Slytherin.In 1991, Harry Potter started at Hogwarts.In May 1998, the Battle of Hogwarts took place. Thanks to

Harry Potter, Lord Voldemort was finally destroyed once and for all, and peace was restored, and Harrywas celebrated as a true hero.Term begins on 1 September. Each year, the Hogwarts Deputy Head sends letters to eligible witchesand wizards who will be eleven years old.The letter contains a list of needed supplies, which includesuniform clothing, spell books, and cauldrons.Students usually obtain school supplies at Diagon Alley inLondon.Students are allowed to bring a cat, an owl or a rats. The Hogwarts uniform consists of a blackrobe and a black pointed hat. The robes bear no marks to distinguish between the houses.Students usually reach Hogwarts via the Hogwarts Express, which leaves from Platform 9¾ of London'sKing's Cross Station at 11 a.m. sharp. The Welcoming Feast takes place in the Great Hall. This feastincludes the Sorting ceremony, followed by a few words from the current Headmaster the banquet startsafter this, including large quantities of food and drink.After dinner, students are led to their house

common room by a prefect. Classes will proceed normally and the next notable event occurs on theevening of 31 October: the Halloween feast.Hogwarts students are divided into four houses: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, andSlytherin.Gryffindor  is well known for bravery, daring, nerve, and chivalry. The house colours are deepred and gold, and the house is symbolized by a lion. Hufflepuff  is well known for loyalty, fair play,honesty, and tolerance. The house is symbolized by a badger, and the house colours are yellow andblack.Ravenclaw values wit, creativity, and wisdom. The house is symbolized by an eagle and thehouse colours are blue and bronze.Slytherin values ambition, cleverness, cunning, resourcefulness,and pure blood heritage. The house is symbolized by a serpent, and the house colours are green andsilver. Numerous lessons are described, instructing the students in various branches of magic. Transfiguration,Defence Against the Dark Arts, Charms, Potions, Astronomy, History of Magic, and Herbology arecompulsory subjects for the first five years. At the end of their second year, students are required to addat least two optional subjects to their syllabus for the start of the third year. The five choices are

 Arithmancy, Ancient Runes, Divination, Care of Magical Creatures, and Muggle Studies.Grading on routine homework seems to be along the same lines as that for Muggle students. Hogwartsstudents also have difficult exams as they progress higher in the system. O.W.L.s (Ordinary WizardingLevels) are a set of standardised tests for fifth year students which determine what courses a studentmay continue to study in their final years at Hogwarts.The day begins at 7:30 a.m. with breakfast in the Great Hall. During breakfast, the mail arrives in a flurryof hundreds of owls. A bell chime signals the start of the first class at 9 a.m. The bell chimes again in

one hour to signal the start of the next class.There are four class periods before lunch, scheduled according to house. After lunch, there is anotherbreak and two more classes.The students must be in bed or in the common rooms by a certain time,after which is called after hours. The times are different for different years.For me that school is perfect .How many of you like to study at that school?
