It was the day of the trip to Hogwarts, and Mildred, Maud and Enid were in Mildred's room, supposedly getting ready to leave. "Oh, I'm sure someone will take care of them," suggested Miss Bat. "But Imogen, Davina, don't you have classes to teach? Asked Miss Cackle. "Can we go to Hogwarts, Miss Cackle?" asked Miss Drill. Miss Hardbroom muttered something and walked off. "We've gone through this before, Constance," replied Miss Cackle. "Are you sure you should have invited Mildred Hubble, Miss Cackle?" asked Miss Hardbroom, as they entered the staff room. "They won't mind tabby then," said Mildred.
"I heard that Hogwarts students can have any colour of cat." Said Enid. Cackle's students all had black cats, except for Mildred, who had a tabby. They were to leave in a week's time, and would be flying to Hogwarts on their brooms. The excited chatting resumed as everyone left the hall. We have chosen Griselda Blackwood, Fenella Feverfew, Clarice Crow, Sybil Hallow, Ethel Hallow, Druscilla Paddock, Enid Nightshade, Maud Moonshine, and Mildred Hubble." Miss Hardbroom gave one of her looks again. "We have already determined which students will be going. "This term," announced Miss Cackle, "a group of students and staff will be visiting Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for several weeks, where they will get to participate in classes and activities with not only Hogwarts students, but also students from Pentangle's Academy, Beauxbatons Academy, Durmstrang Institute, and Camelot College." There was a buzz of excitement among the students, until Miss Hardbroom (the deputy headmistress) gave one of her piercing glares.
Assembly was full of the usual speeches and notices-and a surprise announcement. It was the first day of the school year at Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches.
