Was this all? She had hoped for a better showing. Nevertheless, it was time for the class to begin, so begin it she would. Tiara surveyed the class and cleared her throat rather loudly. "
Good morning, everyone. Thank you for coming."
She had spent awhile thinking about this and decided that it was better to address the elephant in the room and get it behind them. "

You have probably heard that she is no longer with us. Rather, she is cooperating with the Ministry of Magic in an investigation into the curious happenings with the chorts last year." In her mind the verdict was still out on that, but it certainly was a foregone conclusion for some of her colleagues, especially the Headmistress. "
The Headmistress has asked me to fill the void for the rest of the year and I assure you I have every intent of getting you through your O.W.L. and N.E.W.T. examinations at the end of the year."

Perhaps some of you could enlighten me as to what you had been covering before I took over?"
