Many fans have wished for more Chalet School stories, some have predicted the future of the school, but few have actually written about what happened next.

Heather Paisley has done so, capturing EBD's style exactly, and writing the story which Elinor might have written. With the introduction of new girl Charlotte and Len's wedding to add to the normal term's events, it is a must for every Chalet fan.

Two extracts have been published in previous FOCS newsletters (in November 1998 and February 1999) and here is what some members have said about New Beginnings at the Chalet School.

Anita Reddy "I loved Heather Paisley's New Beginnings at the Chalet School and look forward to reading the whole book. It seems, from what we have seen so far, to be a brilliant example of a CS book written in EBD style."

Anne Stewart "I am very impressed by New Beginnings at the Chalet School by Heather Paisley. Its first installment is pure EBD and I look forward to "what happens next"!"

Joyce Ratcliffe "I particularly enjoyed Heather Paisley's New Beginnings at the Chalet School'.

Doreen Litchfield "I really enjoyed Heather Paisley's story, and am looking forward to the next installments."

Anne-Marie Ward "I enjoyed the second part of New Beginnings at the Chalet School. I'll definitely be buying a copy when it is published."

Aileen McGoogan "The second taster of New Beginnings at the Chalet School was wonderful and I can't wait for the book to be published."

Amanda Ward "New Beginnings At The CS is great. Anne-Marie's reaction was "Guess what you're getting for your birthday!" I'm longing to read the whole thing."
