Listen to find out the answers to these questions for the Slytherin HoH!!!
 Questions for G.W.A.T. 1. When did you start reading the HP books. (audio books included) 2. What book is your fave and why? 3. How’d you find the HPKCHC? 4. What is your Roll in HPKCHC? 5. How’d you get into WROCK and do you have a fave group? So how do you and the Slytherin team encourage the awesomeness of winning? Can you share any secrets? Were you always in Slytherin? What made you choose that house your first term/when you switched? What makes Slytherin unique? (i ask in case NQFY’s are listening)
