Since this is my first year at Hogwarts, I have no idea how the point system works....so I will give this my best shot!
Gryffindor- "Roar, Roar, Gryffinnor!" - Our grand house has pulled it out in the end scoring
985 points!!! The winners!
Ravenclaw- Second place with 725 points!
Hufflepuff- A close third with 715 points!
Slytherin- Their momentum slithered away with only 425 points in the end!
