Ginger writes,
"If it was a school punishment, then I can see Dumbledore allowing him 
to pick up his education where he left off, perhaps on summer breaks 
with the help of the teachers. With a brand new wand, of course."  

I reply:
I was just thinking of something like this; what if Hagrid were to audit some fourth year classes with the general student population?  I get the funniest picture when I think of it:

Lavender:  Err... Professor Flitwick?
Flitwick:  Yes, Miss Brown?
Lavender:  What's the Care of Magical Creatures teacher doing in Charms class?
Flitwick:  He's here to learn the spells and charms he will need in the future, the same as you.
Student:  OK.  May I ask one more question?
Flitwick:  Go on.
Lavender:  Where will the rest of us sit?  Hagrid's sitting on all our desks!
Hagrid:  Oops, sorry.  Place seems a lot smaller than it used ter be.

And just imagine if one of Neville's banishment charms accidentally hit Hagrid!  They'd have to rebuild half the castle from the impact!

Hobbit-guy, who's laughing at the possibilities...
