Meet me at The Woodlands at four o'clock tomorrow morning.

I have done some work on beginning stages of content for our curriculum. It is my believe that the stages would be best split, similarly to how they are at Hogwarts.

Years 1 & 2 Ages 5-7
Years 3 - 6 Ages 7-11

During years 1 & 2 the following compulsory studies would be attended by every student of the school.

Compulsory Studies: Writing & Reading, Numbers & Figures, Geography, History of Magical Peoples, Art (Practical), Music (Practical), Citizenship, and Physical Education

During Years 3 - 6 the compulsory studies mentioned above would taught with some additional changes, and optional course studies that would be included.

Compulsory Studies: Writing & Reading, Numbers & Figures, Geography, History of Magical Peoples, Art (Practical), Music (Practical), Citizenship, and Physical Education

In addition to the compulsory studies Modern Foreign Languages (French, Italian, German come to mind as possibilities), Ancient Languages (Latin, Gaelic, Greek), Origins of Magic (Cultural studies for England, and as they grow older, other countries as well), and Personal, Social, and Health Studies.

In both art and music, for Years 3 - 6, there would be a practical element, but an added appreciation element. At all levels, instruction in writing & reading would be primarily in English, but would also be available in Welsh for our witches and wizards with Welsh backgrounds who wish their children to learn such.

The specific details of what would be taught at each individual level will come later, and obviously there is no practical magic instruction as that begins at Hogwarts at the age of eleven. And some children - particularly in years 1 & 2 - may not have even shown signs of magic just yet.

I believe we are ready for input at this time, and so thoughts?

Lucius has been gathering information on an upcoming Wizengamot discussion, and I believe he has enough that it is possible to share it at this time.

A few days ago I set Lucius on the task of completing some of the work that he and Augustus have begun. He reported back to me today, and during tonight's training session brought forward all of the information that he has been able to gather. There is enough that I believe we could begin taking further actions.

We have the address of Emily Prewett's parents. They live in a semi-detatched home, so it would need to be done with care, but I am wondering if they might not have further information regarding their daughter that they could give to us.

If we are in agreement, I believe we should move through the rest of these aurors as swiftly as possible. They have too long continued to live with the notion that their actions and defiance against the Dark Lord go unnoticed.

Tristan Rosier.

Laelia Rosier.

It has not a half-bad sound to it. I should prefer it if he were one of the Dark Lord's devoted servants, but there is perhaps yet time for that. And even without it, the name and the blood alone speak highly of him. I should speak with Julian.

Please meet at the Woodlands this evening at six o'clock sharp. Bring your masks and be prepared for an assignment.

I trust young Severus is healing? I believe that Regulus will live.

Have we heard anything specific regarding the state of either of the Bones? they did not look very good, but that does not mean - unfortunately - that they will not survive.

Edgar Bones.

I wish to know where that man goes, what cases he is on, who his friends are, what his strengths and weaknesses are, what his favourite colour is - in other words I want to know everything there possibly is to know or be discovered about this auror.

Report back to the Inner Circle in a day or two.

This week I should like you to take a look at your Father's library and bring with you any pertinent books on wards, both building and breaking.

I would like to see you both at the Woodlands tonight around eight. We have a mission for the Dark Lord.

The two of you have a mission for this evening. If you can come by the Woodlands after dinner, but before eight in the evening, I will give you the necessary items and brief you both.

Reading, Writing - with literature a part of that; storytelling, theatre, etc - mathematics, citizenship and social skills, music, art, history and general culture.

We should speak with those witches and wizards who operate as private tutors to get a full understanding of what types of lessons they ensure their charges have. I know what Tullia and Prisca have had, but other families may have slightly different priorities - and a beginning list from which we could begin gathering similarities would be a good plan.

Also -

What, if anything, do you know about unofficial wireless stations that may be out there?

The Dark Lord desires Fenrir Greyback. We will begin with werewolf services - Find out everything we can about Greyback and those who are in his pack - but we will need to make plans from there. A halfbreed he might be, but the Dark Lord clearly has some use for him, and it is clear he needs a Master.

The Dark Lord desires information currently held within the werewolf registry in the Ministry of Magic. Those involved will need to break into the registry, retrieve these files and destroy those that are unneeded, all the while remaining undetected by the Ministry personnel until it is too late.

I would like to see a plan from those who wish to be involved.

I have taken the liberty to reserve a room for us at Ashford Castle. We should be able to enjoy a quiet dinner. This is of course, with me taking the liberty to assume that you are still available tomorrow evening?

I wanted to thank you for allowing our Lord's speech to be heard to all who were not in attendance at the masquerade. I assume that this was your quick thinking?

You are all expected to attend the Masquerade this evening. Our Lord desires to make an appearance there and we must be available to prepare his way.

Barty has kindly provided us with information about the security that the DMLE has set up, which has assisted us in our plans for the evening. The Minister of Magic taking the stage to announce costume winners will be your cue. Those of us in the Inner Circle will move towards the door of the ball first where we will prepare a place for us to change from our Masquerade costumes into our masks and robes.

Then we will seek out those in the DMLE so that the Dark Lord can make his entrance without difficulty. There will be a large number of civilians at this event, and unless you know the civilian is a mudblood with absolute certainty they are not to be targeted. Without knowing who is under the mask, it is difficult to know if they would be a pureblood or of the proper viewpoints and the Dark Lord does not wish any of magical blood to be harmed unnecessarily. If they attack you, it does not mean you can not fend them off, but do not kill them.

After the Dark Lord places the Dark Mark in the sky you will be free to leave.

Any questions?

I believe that covers the event as we have discussed it?

Lucius, you will be assisting me with Imperiusing the DMLE guards around the entrance so you should move towards the entrance at the same time as the Inner Circle. Isidore will follow with a disillusionment charm allowing us to prepare for our Lord's entrance.

Barty, if you have discovered any additional information regarding security that you believe might be useful for us to know, feel free to share it with everyone now.

Do we all know our costumes at this point? Lucia has not yet shared mine with me, but I will share that information as soon as I have it. I think it would be prudent if we know what we are dressed as.

When do I get to see you in your costume ma chérie? I am certain you will be lovely, and I confess that I am quite looking forward to seeing my own as well.

Report.

Now.

The shield of Gryffindor is on display at the Brookstanton Memorial Library. You are to retrieve it for our Lord.

Make a plan and take into consideration that we would prefer this to be completed without notice. Either way, I expect the shield to be in the Dark Lord's possession by the end of the month.

The two of you will join me at my manor tomorrow as soon as you are able. The Dark Lord requires your assistance.
