but someone recently made comment about Loony Luna not being on the
train at the end of the academic year, and would students be allowed
to wander around Hogwarts during the Summer Holidays? Would there
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?
