The New Chalet Club

 

Changes for the Chalet School

Synopsis:

 

The Sanatorium is in for another remove, this time to Switzerland, and the Chalet School is going to follow it. A small part of the school is to remain as Glendower House in England, while the major portion prepares to go to the Gornetz Platz in the Oberland. Needless to state, the entire school is excited at the thought of leaving the Big House. Joey and her whole family are also going to Switzerland, as Jack Maynard has to take charge of the San.

 

The changes pour in fast and furious. One that wasn't too popular required extra time given to French and German conversation. There were library books as well as gym and games apparatus to sort through and divide between the two portions of the school.

 

In the meantime, the school welcomes Josette Russell and the Maynard triplets who are back from Canada. Emerence Hope, one of the schools naughtiest girls, strikes up a friendship with Margot Maynard. Margot herself, a mischievous sprite, is in for a sharp pull-up from Miss Annersley.

 

The school carries on much as usual, with their concerns with tennis, cricket, public exams, expeditions and trips. Priscilla Dawbarn manages to distinguish herself on a trip to Vendell. However, it doesn't seem to have calmed her down much, for Priscilla's clan try to liven things up. The consequences however, were more far-reaching than they had ever imagined. The school finally ends their last term in England with a Regatta.
