She should get on with things while she had a captive audience, right? Cassandra gave Botros one last smile before rising and raising a hand to quiet the table of students. "Please don't stop eating on my account, but I would very much appreciate your attention. The Board of Governors is very pleased to join with you on this festive occasion, not only to celebrate the holiday, but also to announce something quite exciting. As you probably witnessed at your first camp, there was a winner selected from among the participants. At the end of the term, you will have selected five very lucky winners, and these winner will have the opportunity to either participate in a Ministry internship or a Quidditch stadium tour and game, depending on the age of the winner. You'll also have the opportunity to have dinner with the Minister for Magic. Headmaster Botros will have more information to share with you about how the winners are selected, but I wanted to be the very first to tell you all about our exciting news!" The feeling of respect and liking was definitely mutual. Botros knew of Mrs. Branxton's impressive history with the school as a headmistress and BoG president, he trusted her judgment almost blindly.
He smiled and clapped modestly after she announced the valuable two rewards. "Thank you, Mrs. President," that sounded oddly Muggle-ish. Oh well. "The five winners we're talking about are the students who collect most points on the Camp Tracker in the student bulletin. Those are the ones who show house and school spirit, and participate in the activities held over the term," he explained briefly and added, "It's getting late, so if you haven't yet, I urge you to finish your meal before we turn in for the night. Thanks everyone for sharing this very blessed evening with your schoolmates. Those times are sacred and very dear as you get older. Believe me, I know." With a final beam at the kids, Botros sat back down to continue his meal. |
