A joint History of Magic and Care of Magical Creatures lesson? Interesting. That didn't happen very often.

But not NOW because then you would be talking over him. "The lake has been a part of Hogwarts since the castle was created 1,000 years ago. Now why do you think, the founders included a lake within Hogwarts? And how do you guys think it has been used in the past?"
Tayla thought of her answer and then raised her hand.
"Professor, I remember students from Durmstrang arrived in a ship through the Black Lake during the Triwizard Tournament in 1994." Tayla didn't have trouble remembering the year since it was then that, for the first time, there were 4 champions in the Tournament.
"And professor, I've always presumed the lake was already around when the Hogwarts castle was built. Then eventually it was used to welcome first years to Hogwarts." She wondered if she was the only one who thought this.
