This should be everything you need to know about the next few days. You can leave any questions here if no one is online.
Those who are over 17 and can apparate are being given permission to do so out of Hogsmeade to attend the service for Kingsley if they would like to. The Potter and Weasley children were also given permission to go. The rest of the students are being given the day off and are instructed to stay in their houses, where they will be watched over by a professor who will remain in the common room for the day. Those professors are Professor Renfield for Gryffindor, Professor Burroughs for Hufflepuff, Professor Binns for Ravenclaw, and Professor Brun for Slytherin. The remainder of the professors have gone to the service.
For supper, there will be a feast and a memorial service for the rest of the students to attend. The professors and older students will be back by then, along with some other Ministry officials and visitors. During Stout's speech about the Minister and what he has done for the wizarding world, Proudfoot looked a little shaky and like he was going to cry. Professor Walker actually did cry.
The Head Boy and Girl will have to stick around after the meal to help entertain the visitors, and the prefects will be told to stay in their common rooms as support for the younger students. The professors will be a bit more lenient over the next few days, especially with any prefects who might wander into class later than usual because they were helping out other students.
In summary, here is the timeline:
Saturday night: Kingsley dies. They suspect murder but this is not confirmed by officials.
Sunday morning: The news was released. Heads of Houses go to the common rooms to tell the students.
Monday: Classes as normal, although the professors probably would have taken most of the time to talk about Kingsley. All Potions and Defense Against the Dark Arts classes are cancelled.
Tuesday, 9:00: Those older students who wish to go to the service for Kingsley are gathered in the entrance hall and go to Hogsmeade as a group with the professors. The professors staying behind enter the common rooms. They remain there all day.
Tuesday, 10:30: The service begins. There are a few speakers, some more emotional than others. Zara Quince and Harry Potter were among those who talk.
Tuesday, 12:00: The service ends.
Tuesday, 1:00: The older students and most of the professors return.
Tuesday, 4:30: A memorial service begins for those at Hogwarts.
Tuesday, 5:00: A feast commemorating Kingsley begins.
Tuesday, 6:00: Stout gives his parting words and the students are allowed to return to their common rooms.
