| | |  A Welsh HBP reporter is chosen
The Financial Times have announced that their winner for the ' Half-Blood Prince' conference reporter contest is Huw Jones, 11, from Brecon in West Wales.
Welsh speaking Huw learnt how to speak English through reading J.K.Rowling's Potter novels.
To win he had to answer three questions about the book and submit a review of his favourite Potter novel.
The panel of judges included Ruth Kelly, Secretary of State for Education and Skills, her Conservative opposite number David Cameron and Martin Stephen, High Master of St Paul’s School, London.
Huw's review of ' Philosopher's Stone' (which he wrote for the competition) can be read at the bottom of this page.

So, grown-ups, please do not disturb us on July 16th. We children are busy!
I loved that line! True, not all HP fans are children, since some years have passed since PS came out, but I found his review really interesting!
Congrats!!

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |
