Nigel Willoughby appears in THE CHALET SCHOOL GOES TO IT / CHALET SCHOOL AT WAR, where he conveys Jo Maynard and the baby Triplets, Frieda von Ahlen (nee Mensch) and Miss Wilson from Guernsey to the British mainland in his steam yacht Sea Witch. By this time he has married Rosamund Atherton and has become the father of Blossom (and later Judy) Willoughby.

 

The eldest of the five Atherton girls, Francesca (Cesca), becomes engaged to Mr. Eltringham, the curate. They become the parents of Nita Eltringham.

 

The elder Temple sisters, Elizabeth and Anne, have been married a year. Elizabeth Ozanne has a baby son, Michael, and Anne Chester has a baby daughter two weeks younger, Elizabeth (Beth).

 

The Willoughby family lives quite near Dawley, the site of St. Peter's High School, which Rosamund Atherton and Geraldine (Gerry) Challoner have attended in GERRY GOES TO SCHOOL and A HEAD GIRL'S DIFFICULTIES.

 

Gerry appears as a friend of Grizel Cochrane in RIVALS OF THE CHALET SCHOOL, and mentions Rosamund Atherton as a great friend.
