My Hogwarts has a serious problem.

Chapter 344, Section 341: Hogwarts Sunshine Sports Week

After seeing the unscrupulous reporter off, Lynn went to the conference room.

This place has been modified and adjusted again compared to before, after all, many new members have been added, and the original long table that seats 30 people is naturally not enough.

Fortunately, the Room of Requirement is known for its responsiveness; the meeting room is now three times larger than before, with four long tables. The entire student council has no more than one hundred members in total, so this room is more than enough.

"It has been almost a week since the student council officially started operating. At the beginning, everyone seemed a bit inexperienced when they were doing their work, but after so many days of practice, I believe you are now able to get the hang of your jobs."

Of course, to improve further, we must face our shortcomings squarely so that we can correct them.

Lynn turned her gaze to Percy, the head of the disciplinary committee.

"The disciplinary committee members have been doing a great job lately, and the school's atmosphere is visibly much better than before."

However, I want to emphasize that you shouldn't find the tasks I've given you troublesome. You must keep the recording magic items you purchased from Diagon Alley attached to your wands at all times. Every time you're on duty, you must clearly record all the conversations related to warnings, point deductions, and arrests. Then, post the recordings on the information board next to the Great Hall that day, so all the young wizards can be aware of the disciplinary committee's enforcement status at any time, and that every punishment and point deduction is justified.

While Lynn was speaking, Percy diligently jotted down the key points in a small notebook, intending to emphasize them to his disciplinary committee members after the meeting.

"I have heard about your arrest of Malfoy today. It was very good that you followed the procedures exactly and left no room for criticism."

However, arresting a third-year wizard doesn't warrant such a large-scale mobilization of the entire disciplinary committee. A level three alert is a bit excessive. Next time a similar situation arises, a level two alert should be activated, and the three nearest disciplinary committee members should be dispatched.

Percy nodded seriously to indicate that he understood.

"And the publicity department, you need to speed up the progress of the school newspaper you are planning. We don't require it to be published every day, one issue a week is fine."

Remember to update the information on the posters in a timely manner. Posters older than three days should be cleaned up by the students on duty. Don't be lazy and just stick new posters on top of old ones.

Just as Lynn was giving instructions to these departments, Bart Swart, the Minister of Arts and Sports and a seventh-year Slytherin student, raised his hand with a worried expression.

"Chairman, other departments are busy, and they don't even have enough staff. So what is our department for? Quidditch matches don't start until around Halloween. Before that, I feel like we have no reason to exist."

Just as he said, the Department of Arts and Sports has the lowest profile in the student council right now, because there is only one sports competition on campus, Quidditch, which will not start until the second semester.

During this period, apart from managing some of Hogwarts' Quidditch fields, the Department of Arts and Sports had basically nothing to do and was extremely idle every day.

"Enjoy your leisurely time now, because you'll all be busy soon. Don't come complaining to me about being tired then." Lynn waved her wand at the filing cabinet in the conference room, and a rolled-up parchment floated out of the cabinet on its own.

The parchment flew to the Minister of Culture and Sports, who opened it with a puzzled look and saw the title on it.

Hogwarts Sunshine Sports Week Planning Proposal

The Minister of Culture and Sports stared blankly at the parchment.

"This, this, this is..."

"Professor Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall have both approved a proposal that says there are indeed too few sports activities in the castle. The students are at the peak of their energy right now, and they don't have enough exercise to release it, which is why they like to cause trouble in the castle."

Lynn tapped the parchment with his wand, and the proposal immediately split into more than ten copies, which were then distributed to the student leaders.

"Of course, this is not just the work of the Arts and Sports Department. As this is the first large-scale group activity organized since the establishment of the Student Union, everyone in the Student Union needs to be mobilized."

The chairmen and ministers picked up the parchment that floated down in front of them and listened as Lynn explained it to them.

"This year's Sunshine Sports Week mainly focuses on the first Hogwarts Track and Field Games."

Being a wizard is not just about learning magic; as young people of the new era who are about to enter the 21st century, we must strive for all-round development in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor.

Because the conditions are not very good right now, we can only prioritize training the students' physical fitness.

Everyone here should have participated in the Duel Club last semester. After you've officially been exposed to wizard duels, you should all be able to clearly understand how important adequate physical fitness is in battle.

Most spells in the magical world can be avoided. Good physical fitness not only allows students to have more energy to study, but also improves their self-defense capabilities.

Therefore, this Sunshine Sports Week and the included track and field meet are not just activities to unleash students' boundless energy, but also a catalyst for students to value physical health and sports. In the future, Hogwarts will not only have academic exams like magic during final exams, but also physical fitness tests.

After Lynn finished emphasizing the points, he opened the parchment in his hand and explained the upcoming track and field meet to them in detail.

"Sunshine Sports Week is scheduled for the last week of September each semester. Professor Dumbledore and I negotiated a three-day holiday for this week, which, together with the two days of the weekend, makes a total of five days off. The track and field meet will be held two days before the holiday."

The location is at the Quidditch pitch. After this meeting, the Student Affairs Department will send people to clean up the site. Minister of the Arts and Sports Department, please bring a few more people to accompany us. I will give you guidance on the rules of various events at the sports meet.

The participants in this sports meet include all young wizards from all four houses and seven years of Hogwarts. The competition will be held by year and scored by house. Each person is limited to three events.

The champion receives 3 points, the runner-up receives 2 points, and the third-place finisher receives 1 point. All these points are added to the college's final score, and the college with the highest score receives the Best College Medal and priority choice of venue for future anniversary celebrations.

I always thought that the chapters without titles were because I forgot to write them, but I realized yesterday that it wasn't because I forgot to write them at all; I did write them, but they were all 404 errors!

I'll go ask the editor after the May Day holiday.
