INTRO
A big friendly HELLO and WELCOME! So I reckon you’re probably all like ‘So, like, who are you even, Cardiff University Harry Potter Society, and like, what d’you do anyway ‘cause you seem sort of lame.’ First, we’re not lame, we’re awesome and that’s enough of your sass. Second, we do everything and anything we like (quizzes, pub crawls, Yule Balls, games nights, fanfiction, film screenings, competitions, parties and other assorted outings). Now that’s settled onto the next (inevitable, yet awesome) questionillio – ‘HOW DO I JOIN?’
MEET THE FRESHERS FAYRE!
On the 26th September 2011, in the Great Hall (it’s in the Students Union, down some stairs and near the shop) a veritable smörgåsbord of clubs and societies will be vying for your attention and hidden amongst that bustle will be us. We’ll probably look something like this:
We’ll be there all day in some form or another so come anytime you like! You can ask us any questions you want and we’ll probably even answer. If you do miss us Don’t Panic, you can register online at Campus Groups! (It’s a £4 membership for the most fun you can have.)
THE SORTING
So by now you’ve joined and maybe you’re thinking ‘What happens next?’ Well, this is Potter, so, of course, The Sorting Ceremony! Everyone must be sorted into the four houses which come as follows –
(the hopelessly neat) Gryffindors
Hufflepuffs (the coolest cats)
(the super fly) Ravenclaws
(the totally bodacious) Slytherinz
This will be done via the magical, mystical, mischievous and mostly moth eaten Sorting Hat! From this point we’ve been assured that all will meet their real friends. House points will be awarded for good behaviour throughout the term and winner will get THE HOUSE CUP. Remember that.
NEXT – WEEKLY MEETINGS
That’s right ladies and Gentlemen, WEEKLY. Every week we do something different and all you have to do is come along and have a darn tootin’ good time. And that’s not very hard at all! We’ll tell you where to go and when in the weekly email and then something like this will happen:
Or this:
We might even freestyle and organise a bigger event or two like maybe a cheeky cinema trip, or a bit of bowling, or a Yule Ball . . .
So do your best we’ll do the rest, and we’ll see you in September!
