  still be any staff around?

  I say:

  Sybil Trelawny claims that Hogwarts is her home, so presumably she 
  lives there all year round; perhaps a significant number of other 
  teachers do, as well.  A fair number of them are always around 
  throughout all the other holidays, easter, christmas etc.  If they 
  had homes and families to go to, you'd think they would go for 
  Christmas lunch at least, but Snape, McGonagall, Dumbledore, Trelawny 
  all seem pretty much ever present.

  That's the conclusion I'd come to as well, although I was more pointing out the canon evidence of both students and a member of staff being in Hogwarts during the holidays as a reply to their original query.  It still leaves me with the question of just what were the boys doing there outside termtime AND before they were officially pupils?
