Dear WattPotter,

Please note that the new school year will begin on September the first. The Hogwarts Express will leave from King's Cross station, platform nine and three-quarters, at eleven o'clock.

A list of books for next year is enclosed, including The Standard Book of Spells, Grade 2 by Miranda Goshawk. If you cannot afford the proper text for Charms, a supplementary course is available for you. Enchantments, taught by Professor Quirrell, does not require a book.

Please, do leave all contraband at home.

Yours sincerely,

Professor M. McGonagall
Deputy Headmistress
