In the run up to awarding the fourth Pottermore House Cup we asked the Pottermore community to display their house pride, and we have thoroughly enjoyed celebrating each house and witnessing the amazing and diverse ways that proud Pottermore community members celebrate their affiliation.


To help you display your pride we shared some cover and background images for Facebook and Twitter profiles, which you can find here for Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. We also took a poll of some of your favourite wizards and witches from each house, challenged you to share your pride and gave the younger ones a creative challenge. Read on for our take on the best of house pride week!


We really hope that you enjoyed house pride week and now it’s time to take all your pride and turn your attention to the awarding of the Pottermore House Cup as every point earned still counts. In accordance with past award ceremonies, the hour-glasses displaying the house points will be concealed on Tuesday and the winner will be unveiled on Thursday in the Great Hall.

Poll Results
We organised a poll for each house asking the community to vote for their favourite witch or wizard from that house. You can find the results below.


Slytherin Poll Results: Your favourite witch or wizard from our poll (Facebook and Pottermore Insider results)

 


Severus Snape might not be everyone’s favourite professor in Potions classes, but the Pottermore community voted for him as their favourite Slytherin wizard in this poll.

Ravenclaw Poll Results: Your favourite witch or wizard from our poll (Facebook and Pottermore Insider results)


Garrick Ollivander was your favourite Ravenclaw wizard in our poll, and it comes as no surprise, given that his fine wands have been put to use by many members of the Pottermore community when duelling or brewing potions on Pottermore.com.

Gryffindor Poll Results: Your favourite witch or wizard from our poll (Facebook and Pottermore Insider results)


The witches were the stars in Gryffindor’s poll, being the two most popular choices of Pottermore community members. Hermione Granger was voted the most popular Gryffindor with more than 30% of the votes.

Hufflepuff Poll Results: Your favourite witch or wizard from our poll (Facebook and Pottermore Insider results)


Hogsmeade may be a favourite with Hogwarts students, but it seems that popularity isn’t enjoyed by its founder Hengist of Woodcroft. Instead, Cedric Diggory, Hufflepuff’s Quidditch Captain, was voted as Hufflepuff’s favourite wizard in this poll.
