Winter/Fall of 2078 (IC-wise) Welcome to Hufflepuff! A very warm COOL and enthusiastic welcome to our newly sorted Hufflepuffs. We hope you guys are having fun already! Congratulations on having the honor of belonging in the best House ever our House of gold and black! It is certainly a joy for us all to have you in it; however, if you do not share the same joy, I assure you that Hufflepuff and all its members will grow on you before you realize it.
But not everything is about our newest additions, for all you returning students are equally important to us. You know the rules, and you’re bound not to get lost by now, so please set a good example around the school. Remember you represent Hufflepuff, so do as a true Badger will do. In other words, Hogwarts is not a zoo, refrain from acting like monkeys, or zebras, or whatever animal you deem appropriate, outside (and inside as well) the privacy of the Common Room lounge.
Now, the most important part…have fun! (Do try to study in the meantime, as it would be lovely to continue on winning the house cup again, with your help of course!) Despite rumors, there is no man-eating plant on the grounds, but their is an adorable baby elf named Toddles in the kitchens!
If you're a bit confused or lost at first, don't worry, it's completely normal! We suggest you consult The Blunt Badger, a sub-section of the Herald which contains a staff list, helpful links, a FAQ, roleplay tips, classroom tips, and homework submission guidelines. If you still have questions, feel free to contact our Head of House, your Prefects, your Captain, or an older student. Have fun!
Head of House - Prof. Josephina F. Hadley (PhoenixRising)
House Mod - Prof. Isabelle Magnus (MeredithRodneyMckay)
House Prefect (female) - Annabelle Lecium (hpfan18)
House Prefect (male) - Lewis Rasting (Lislchen)

- Gobstones Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw are facing off in the last game of the year, come on down, and help your badgers rack up some points. Gryffindor and Sytherin played a great game themselves, with the Lions coming out on top in the end.
- The Common Room Great news Hufflepuffs! Thanks to the hard work of our Professors the Common Rooms have reopened! So get in there quick and make sure your pets haven't gotten into your bag of snacks to survive.
Quidditch
The Championship! Our very own Hufflepuffs vs. Ravenclaw The final date of the match is tentatively scheduled for December 1st, but is subject to change. I expect to see you all cheering for Captain Renesmee, and her team to bring back the Quidditch Cup to Hufflepuff. House Points Raveclaw:2808 Hufflepuff:2397 Slytherin:2244 Gryffindor:1949 Editor's Note Awesome work Puffers, We've made it to Finals with our awesome Quidditch team, and we moved to second with our House points only a few hundred points behind Ravenclaw. If we work hard, attend our classes, and do our homework we may be able to give Professor Hadley the House Cup once more. Oakey R. Gunter
