Miss Norton and Mlle Berne are on the staff of the finishing branch.
A very old girl, Gillian Culver, has joined the staff as Miss Wilson's Secretary.
Gabrielle Fournet, a new girl turns out to be the neice of yet another old girl, Yvette Mercier.
Peggy has her own personal trauma to undergo as she is suddenly called home as her mother is to undergo surgery.
Elma's plan to meet Stuart Raynor is foiled and she is warned that any further conduct of that sort would result in expulsion. She tries to break off with Stuart, but finds that he is an utter cad who will not stop pestering her even if she gets into trouble. Elma had taken a dislike to Peggy from the very beginning but it is Peggy now who comes to her assistance and enlists Miss Wilson's support to see that Mr. Raynor is fimly warned off. Elma and Peggy become friends after this, and in THE CHALET SCHOOL DOES IT AGAIN we have a reference to Peggy being bridesmaid at Elma's wedding.
Elma's callous behaviour leads to a serious breach between her and her great friend Pamela which is finally resolved during the much greater crisis of a railway accident.
