Hogwarts students may have noticed how quiet it has been around the Castle this past term. The Ravenclaw tables in the Great Hall were deserted, desks usually occupied by Ravenclaws were vacant, and the Tower was silent and empty. The Ravenclaws had left on a ROAD TRIP!!
Together with several hearty NQFYs, the entire Ravenclaw House embarked on an epic ‘round-the-world journey to visit seven of the great wizarding schools in other countries. Although meeting other students and seeing their castles was unforgettable, it was the unexpected we encountered along our travels that made this trip truly memorable! Dragons, a kraken, Sirens, polar bears, pirates, and many more creatures and people contributed to our mind-blowing adventures, as we traveled by – among other conveyances – Ford Anglias, flying carpets, elephants, airships, and luxury liners.
Our entire journey is preserved here for those who wish to relive our adventures chapter by chapter.
Although the trip was conceived as the Prefects’ Challenge, other Ravenclaw activity teams such as Tetris, First Years, and Convocation joined in the overall travel theme. Even the Aerie masthead changed with every new location! All Ravenclaws and NQFYs who signed up for the trip were able to log their yardage, Flight of the First classes, and charity projects to earn extra leagues – the distance measurement for this trip -- to speed us along our way. The magic Travelogue automatically recorded leagues awarded for class participation, and altogether Ravenclaw earned more than enough leagues to successfully complete our journey. With high hopes of a THREE-PEAT, courageous Ravenclaws didn’t allow ANYTHING to slow down their crafting!
With a new understanding of the wonders of our magical world, Ravenclaw House is back home in the Tower just in time for the End of Term Feast, passports full of visa stamps, project bags sprouting experience buttons, heads whirling with stories, and wild tales to tell!
We’re ready for a new term!
Thanks to Prefect topfrog for that recap!
