Photos from our Go Global evening. We attempted to read Philosopher’s Stone in as many languages as we could, finishing off the evening with a rather raucous quiz.

We had a fab time at our annual Halloween party. Some excellent costumes were brought out and we ended up with not one, not two but three Bellatrix Lestranges. Good times, people, good times.

The winner of our costume competition – for the second year in the row, no less – was Daimonde with her fabulous Fawkes costume. Congratulations!

Read on to see some of our awesome photos.

So the Freshers’ Fayre occurred today, with many new members showing up to type in their details and walk away with the knowledge that they’d just joined something fantabulous.

The end of the academic year gave us a chance to kick back for a glitzy awards night that we don’t have to plan. Lovely. Thanks to the SU exec for hosting a great night.

This year we were short-listed for the Best Webpage, which was a great follow-up to last year’s shortlisting for Most Imaginative Activity. HP Soc was also awarded a bronze StARs award.

The Horcrux Hunt is becoming an annual event. But it’s not as scary as it sounds! This is one of our pub crawls with a difference; 2007’s Horcrux Hunt was short-listed for the Most Imaginative Event at the Students’ Union Societies Awards.

Surprisingly, drinking isn’t the main purpose of this pub crawl. Instead, there’s a series of daft challenges designed to get everyone involved – and win some house points in the meantime.

If there’s one time of year when we get to geek out properly and dress up, it’s Halloween.
