It was sort like when one saw a muggle mowing a lawn, single strips all the way down to his lightly tanned skin and then another strip of fuzz.
Oh good, the students were beginning to arrive and right on time. "Good day," she returned in kind with a smile to the Head Boy as he was the first to join her at the apparition course. Kendra quickly looked through the stack of official name tags she was holding until she found Derfael's and handed it to him, her eyes briefly landing on what appeared to be an unsuccessful shaving attempt. Was this a terrible new teen trend or was he really in need of some hygiene assistance? Teenagers were so awkward.

Kendra gave a nod and polite smile to the next student to arrive. "Hello, I'm glad to see your enthusiasm." Because apparition was an exciting thing, especially to get your own license. She hoped this girl was up to par. Kendra looked through the name tags, glad they came with a small photo of each next to the name because she certainly couldn't remember all of them, only being here periodically. Ah, Nicola Jarvis, there she was, and Kendra handed the name tag to her.

It was familiar, though, so she’d managed a bright smile for the Ministry department head as she’d come out into the clearing. “Good day, Mrs. Jordan-Durand,” she greeted her, even as she came up alongside Derf and lightly bumped his arm in greeting. Also, she sent a smile in Nicola’s direction as well. The fact she was the first non-Hufflepuff to arrive didn’t bother her one bit.
"Good day," Kendra greeted the next young woman with her own smile. As for her name tag.... ah, yes, there it was. She matched the picture with the face and came up with Anastasiya Dalgaard-Volkova and handed it over to the girl.

Blaze was ready to get moving on this.
Kendra's eyes followed the next boy to arrive as he stood alone and slightly away from the assembled group. It didn't bother her so much that he didn't speak to her as she wasn't here to make small talk conversation with teenagers. She had a job to do, of course, even if she wondered who taught this boy manners - apparently no one. But she soon found the name tag with his photo attached - Edward Blaze, Jr. - and handed it over to him.

And thus, Zoryn actually made an effort to be prompt for once in her life. She gave their instructor a nod as she walked in, ignored Derf and made her way to a lonely spot where she'd have plenty of space to save for Faith Chosen.
Kendra gave the next young woman a nod in return as she sorted through the name tags. Soon finding the matching photo attached, she handed the name tag to one Zoryn Spinnet. It didn't escape her notice that this girl also set herself apart from the group, but she hardly had time to consider it. Hopefully that just meant that she was here to focus on the task at hand.

Once the rest of the apparition hopefuls arrived and the last of the name tags were handed out, Kendra clapped her hands together twice to get their attention. It was time to begin!

"Good day, everyone, and congratulations on making it this far in your journey towards apparition licensure!" She was excited for them, could they tell? "Today marks the final test in achieving that license. You will need to apparate through this course successfully and without even the most minor splinching." That was important to know that they could do it safely, and she gestured towards the course set up in front of them, but she'd discuss that in greater detail shortly.

"Once you've shown mastery in the practical application of apparition, we'll return inside where you'll complete a written exam. And, if all goes well, you'll receive your license by owl in just a few short weeks." Just in time to do all the summer apparition they want. "Of course, this will be for a basic license. If you wish to obtain an advanced license for intercontinental apparition, additional classes and testing can be done at the Ministry." But that was much more advanced, and one step at a time.

"Please make sure you have your name tag on and step behind the starting line so we can begin." The name tag was no exception if they wanted their license. She needed to keep close track on who was successful and who was not. "And while you're making your way over, let's do a little review. Who can tell me anything they know about the three Ds of Apparition?"
