Hagrid's (school) House, (not his hut)

[Odile Alburquerque]

No: HPFGUIDX 4517

  
 well, i found it.  i started reading book 1 again, 
and i dont think hagrid was at hufflepuff.  i think he was at 
griffindor (since griffindor has the loyal people and so forth.  
here's an excerpt.......


first, harry is just meeting draco (for the first time) at 'Madam 
Malkin's Robes for All Ocasion's'  and draco is talking about the 
housing at Hogwarts (harry has no idea what he is talking about).

"Well, no one really knows until they get there, do they, but I know 
I'll be in Slytherin, all our family have been -- imagine being in 
hufflepuff, I think I'd leave, wouldn't you?"

and then, later, when harry goes outside to ask hagrid......


"And what are Slytherin and Hufflepuff?"

"School houses. There's four.  Everyone says Hufflepuff are a lot o' 
duffers, but--"

"I bet I'm in Hufflepuff," said Harry gloomily.

"Better Hufflepuff than Slytherin," said Hagrid darkly.  "There's not 
a single withch or wizard who went bad who wasn't in Slytherin.  You-
Know-Who was one."

you can find these on pages 77-80 (paperback.  Chapter 5, Diagon 
Alley.
