The Madcap of the School

A lively band of girls bursts onto the scene, their chatter echoing through the ancient gateway of a lofty Tudor house that will become their new school. The sprawling courtyard, dotted with flower‑beds and flagstones, feels like stepping straight out of a storybook, and the girls’ excitement is palpable as they unpack their trunks and explore every cobbled corner.

Raymonde and Aveline, quick to make themselves at home, lead the way, sharing witty banter about mischievous insects that seem to have taken up residence in the ivy‑clad walls. Their friends, each with a distinct personality, soon form a tight‑knit circle, ready for the adventures, pranks and mysteries that the moated Grange promises. As the term begins, the girls discover that school life here is anything but ordinary, setting the stage for a season full of laughter, loyalty, and the occasional daring escapade.
