“Good afternoon Mrs McCallum, the waiting is sometimes hard, especially with three children to rear.” “Quite, well let us go to my study and we can talk, hopefully I can convince you to join our small faculty.” Arriving at her study the headmistress and Samantha found two pupils, Marcy and Virginia’s daughter Shannon, both 16, standing outside the door waiting and definitely looking nervous. Virginia thought to herself, “More trouble, what has Shannon gotten into this time?” She gave the two a piercing stare and said sarcastically, “Shannon! I don’t suppose Marcy and you are standing here to welcome Mrs Vickers to Shandon are you?” “No miss, I talked Shannon into going to the pub at lunch, we were caught out of bounds and told to report to you for punishment.”, Marcy interjected.
