House Points System: Revamped!
Our amazing Nickles has not ceased to niftify (new word) our beloved HNZ. Then again, what he has done, only our professors can do, and that is update our system without having to go through the Admin CP or whatever Nick did to keep us updated. And from what I can see on the house points, it seems like Slytherin is still in the lead.

Purples Lose An Orchid
So, Abby came back on for a while, but sadly enough, real life claimed her once again.


Caption Competition: Voting
MESSI's caption competition voting for your favorite caption has begun! Remember people, vote once and only once, with one account. We have some funny people out there, and funnier entries, so get to voting which can be found here.
Reminder: Rules
Remember the rules update? We have added in the signature rule, and avatar rule, as seen in the board rules topic which is here. If your signature breaks that rule, which pretty much any banner with a GIF (though some fit the restrictions so check yours if you have a GIF in it) in it or an avatar that has more than 20 frames will break those rules, then remove it or else you will be PMed because we will find you.

Tinypic: Sucks...Again!
As expected, seems like tinypic has been tampering with our beloved signatures once again. So, this makes it the third time, and I have even switched over my stuff to an account on photobucket. So, come here for the full announcement. Remember that if there is something wrong with a signature, notify an Admin and they will be sure to remove it! It is not really our fault so keep that in mind.

Inventory System: Updated Again!
How can the system get any better, you ask? Well, now the inventory system now suggests results if there are multiple users with the name that you are looking for. Imagine that! Can this inventory system get any niftier? So, you can even find a character called "Sympathetic Character" is you want to.

Now Hiring: Professors and Shopkeepers!
Seems like Y11 needs some more hardworking professors as positions have opened up and we need you to apply for those positions! Right now, we are hiring for Astronomy, Years 1-4 and Care of Magical Creatures, and Flourish and Blotts. Come here to look for more positions on shopkeepers and come here to look for open positions on professors.
Remember though, we will be hiring more professors as Y11 draws nearer.

Professors are a strong part of this school's community, so keep those eyes open for more positions opening!

Ministry Election Continues!
Our Ministry plot deepens again and this time, our candidates must be in a debate, and put their wits to the test. This will be an interesting read for all of you, so be sure to keep your eyes on this debate which is found here. We will see how these candidates are with Mozart interrogating them all!


Graduation Class of 2026!
Yet another graduation has taken place at Hogwarts New Zealand!
