The sorting ceremony begins at the start-of-year feast at Hogwarts. The sorting hat is an ancient wizard's hat that is a remarkable magical item; it can think, speak, sing, read minds, and even has its own personality; it originally belonged to Godric Gryffindor. The main function of the Sorting Hat is to classify the first-year students into the house that would most suit their personality.

![[ ]](http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb148/hogwartsmoon/choice2ad5.jpg) | Platform Nine and Three Quarters The Hogwarts Express, the only train which takes students to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, departs at 11am on September 1, the day before Hogwarts students begin their school year. Students board this train from Platform Nine and Three Quarters, in Kings Cross Station.
Of course, this platform is not visible to Muggles, being, as are all large meeting places for wizards, magically concealed. In order to get to Platform Nine and Three Quarters, one must walk directly through the seemingly-solid barrier between Platform Nine and Platform Ten (if nervous, it is best to do this at a run). Once through, the barrier it is no longer visible, a wrought-iron sign reading "Platform Nine and Three Quarters" having taken its place.

![[ ]](http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb148/hogwartsmoon/choice2ad5.jpg) | The Hogwarts Express The train waits at the platform - a scarlet steam engine with a string of carriages behind it, long enough to contain all of the Hogwarts students. On the days when the train is leaving for Hogwarts, it gushes sooty steam over Platform Nine and Three Quarters- which is packed with Hogwarts students, their pets, and their parents who have come to take them to the station and say goodbye.
At the end of the school year, the Hogwarts Express brings the students back Platform Nine and Three Quarters once more. Here, students go through the same routine, but in reverse. Instead of hurrying on to the crowded platform and saying goodbye to family for the school year, students exit the train and leave the platform, back to the Muggle sections of Kings Cross Station, and say goodbye to friends for the summer.

The sharp-eyed wizard will note, however, that there is a building neatly nestled in between. This unobtrusive building is the Leaky Cauldron. Inside it is dark and shabby, with a bar and a number of tables in the shadows of the corners.

From the look of his store, it appears as though Death Eaters dragged him off. Their motive s for doing so is unknown, other than the fact that Florean "was a good man". Since Florean's disappearance, his Ice Cream Parlour has been boarded up. Although, new owners have resurrected the wasted parlour, in an attempt to restore it to its past glory and reputation.

They regretted their purchase of 200 copies of the Invisible Book of Invisibility when they couldn't find them and had to take the loss on the whole lot. It is the most popular shop for Hogwarts students to buy the books for the new year.

Inside, the shop is smelly and very noisy, as cages line the walls from top to bottom and very few of the animals inside are of a quiet persuasion. In addition to owls, customers can purchase purple toads, Fire Crabs, Streelers, self-transfiguring rabbits, cats, ravens, Puffskeins, rats and probably a lot more besides. The Magical Menagerie is also the place to go for advice on double-ended newts.

Matthew’s shop gained its fame after it published the Fiend Folio & the Vanity of Vile Darkness as well as selling a variety of simple Dark Arts books like Curses Made Simple and Jinxes For Jackals. He offers discounts to Hogwarts students that are brave enough to venture into his shop, mainly because they are illegal for the students to have.
The back of the shop, however, is off limits to the general public. It is speculated that Death Eater activity can be found here, although it is merely theory and has yet to be proven. But, people have their suspicions…

![[ ]](http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb148/hogwartsmoon/choice2ad5.jpg) | The Great Hall (5 sub-boards) Double doors in the Entrance Hall lead to the Great Hall, which is a vast chamber with an enchanted ceiling that mirrors the sky outside. Lightning and thunder flash across it during storms, on clear nights it appears deep black and full of stars, and it has been full of sunshine or covered with grey clouds. For special occasions the ceiling has been transformed; warm, dry enchanted show falls for a Christmas celebration and colourful confetti falls during Valentine's Day celebration.
There are windows in the Great Hall near the front door, and at night the room is lit with thousands of floating candles. There are four long tables for each of the four houses, and the teachers sit at a fifth table on a raised platform at the front of the room.
The kitchens lie directly beneath the Great Hall and are just the same size. Five preparation tables lie directly beneath the five tables in the Hall above, and at mealtimes the food is magically transported through the ceiling to the tables in the Great Hall.
There are usually four feasts each year; the start-of-term feast, Halloween feast, Christmas feast, and the end-of-year feast. The staff and students eat all their regular meals in the Great Hall, and the Owl Post arrives during breakfast. After dinner the students are expected to go to the library or their house common rooms for studying and socializing. The Great Hall is not used for studying.

Divination is much more useful for predicting major changes and important events or can be used to predict day-to-day events.

To make it appear, one must walk past its hidden entrance three times while concentrating on what is needed. The room will then appear, outfitted with whatever is required. To the Hogwarts house-elves it is also known as the Come and Go Room. The Room can also answer to the desire of the wizard within the room, such as forbidding any Death Eater supporters coming in, or create a passage to Hog's head (as the room cannot produce food).

The windows do not have glass so the owls can easily fly in and out. The floor is covered in straw, owl droppings, and the regurgitated bones of small animals. Hundreds of owls of every kind sleep on perches that rise up to the top of the tower. Any student can use the school owls to mail letters and packages.

During these lessons you can always expect to meet dangerous and strange creatures, such as Blast-Ended Skrewts, and creatures that others consider dangerous, but Hagrid is able to tame, such as Thestrals, and Hippogriffs. Many students consider this class to be full of excitement; others however, sometimes consider it dangerous, and too over-the-top.
