Hello hello, and welcome to yet another BWU! As per usual when it is my turn, it is a little bit late! Sorry guys, but here it is now!
New Head Auror!
Nick left a hole in our hearts when he had his Head Auror killed off. Not only was everyone shocked and upset by this news ( :o :cry: ), but it also left our Wizarding World without a Head Auror. After a long and hard process, we finally have our new Head Auror
Missed the announcement? Check it out here and congratulate our new Head Auror!
Week 5?!
Holy moly, I cannot believe it is week 5 already. The semesters fly by so quickly! Well done to Gryffindor who is obviously doing well in classes and are leading in House Points! Ravenclaw is close behind, so students, if you want to win the cup, make sure you get your classes done!
Professors, please keep up to date with the lessons and grading. As always, if you need a helping hand, please let us know.
Halloween!
BOO!
Even though we are currently in May, HNZ has a super weird time frame and they're already in October! Magical folk :tut:
Get your characters over to the Halloween Feast and join in on the fun and the costume contest! There are quite a few open RPs, so everyone should have something to join! ^_^
Good and Evil meetings
Some of you may have missed it, but we currently have two meetings happening; for good and for evils.
If you have an Auror, head on over to the Auror's Meeting to meet your new boss!
If you have a Scitorari member, head on over to the Second Gathering.
QUIDDITCH
Well, the Quidditch games have already come and gone, and we have two winners!
Hufflepuff played Gryffindor in an incredibly short game, before Gryffindor caught the snitch, grabbing the win at Hufflepuff: 0 | Gryffindor: 150. Next time Hufflepuff!
Slytherin and Ravenclaw had a longer game, but in the end, Ravenclaw had the victory; Slytherin: 10 | Ravenclaw: 160.
Well done teams! I can't wait for the next round!

Birthday fanatics!
Our birthday celebrations are still going strong! We had a super duper fun Skype Party on Saturday/Sunday, so thank-you to all who made it! Another Skype party is in the talks if people who didn't make it to this one, want another one.
Superlatives!
On the news of birthday stuffs, the Superlatives Voting will be closing soon.
Head on over here to vote for the nominee you want to win!
HNZ Signature!
We still have a giant spot to fill up on HNZ's community signature! And even when that is done, I'm sure we can fit more in. It's HNZ's 10th birthday, so make sure you go and get your name signature-d onto the sign for good memories! Le Click!
Graphics Voting
We have some pretty amazing entries to the Graphics competition, so keep your eyes out because the voting for that will open soon! Thank-you to everyone who made the time to enter, it was awesome to see all the creativity.​
