On entering the school building, it didn't take the spies long to locate their form room - 10V, of which the form tutor was no other than Miss Verinder!
The spies were just in time to arrive in their classroom just before the end of the registration. Luckily, it was Monday, so the class was going to have PSHE, which meant that they would be staying in their form room for the next two classes.
"Ah, there you are!" exclaimed Miss Verinder on seeing her two new students.
"Is this 10V, miss?" enquired Claire, who pretended to have got lost on the way.
"Yes, you must be Clara and Lizzie!" responded Miss Verinder. "I am Ms. Verinder. Welcome to class 10V!"
"We're so sorry for being late, miss. We got lost on the way here," said Eliza innocently.
"No worries! We have PSHE for the next two periods, which will give you some time to familiarise yourselves with your form room and get to know some people in your form," elucidated Ms. Verinder, who clapped her hands to attract the attention of her students. "Students, this is Clara and Lizzie - two new students that will be joining us this semester. I hope you will make yourselves hospitable to our newcomers. Marianne, as our class representative in the student council, you are in charge of taking Clara and Lizzie around the school to familiarise themselves, understand?" Miss Verinder said as she glanced sharply at a brunette girl.
"Yes, miss," answered Marianne.
"Good! Clara and Lizzie, please go and sit down at the two empty seats over there," continued Miss Verinder pointing at an empty table at the back of the classroom. "The bell has just rung. So, now, we will start PSHE. This week, our topic will be about alcohol and drug abuse. Before we start, I would like you to start brainstorming in groups of two on everything you can think of surrounding this topic. You can include anything relevant, including what you've learnt in KS3.........."
"OMG! I can't believe this!" whispered Claire after sitting down on her seat.
"I know right! This was our form room back in year 10!" answered Eliza.
"Everything seems so familiar yet different at the same time," said Claire. "This is so weird!"
"It seems like PSHE was just as boring as ever though!" giggled Eliza quietly.
"Lizzie, please focus!" said Ms. Verinder sternly as she stared at Eliza with her piercing look that sent a chill right down Eliza's spine.
"Right.....alcohol....." said Eliza as she slowly turned towards her friend. "Don't make me write an essay on alcohol abuse during freshers week - I have way too much experience!"
