It’s your first day at Malory Towers, and as you walk into the North Tower, a wave of excitement and nerves washes over you. The familiar hum of conversation fills the room. The girls are already getting comfortable, and you feel like an outsider, unsure of how you’ll fit in.

June Johns is the first to catch your eye. She’s bouncing around the room, full of energy and mischief, laughing with Felicity Rivers. “I’ll bet you a pound she’ll be at the midnight feast,” June teases, her smile wide and cheeky. Felicity, calm and composed as always, smiles softly. “Malory Towers has its share of surprises. You’ll see,” she says with a knowing look.

At her desk, Susan Blake looks up from her book and catches your eye. Her expression is kind, but she’s the quiet one. “Don’t worry, we’ll help you settle in,” she says, her voice steady and reassuring.

You feel the girls’ gazes on you, not with judgment, but with curiosity and kindness. June’s grin widens. “Midnight feast, definitely,” she says with a wink. Felicity gives you a warm smile, her blue eyes full of understanding. “You’ll fit in just fine,” she reassures. Susan offers a quiet, steady smile, nodding. “You’re not alone here. We’re all in this together.”

The energy in the North Tower is a mix of fun, comfort, and adventure, and you already feel like you’re starting to belong. “Thanks,” you say, finally feeling at ease. “I’m excited to be here.”

June grins, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “Welcome to the North Tower. We’re going to have a blast. And we’ll also make sure you never forget your first term here”

The girls look at you, each with their own thoughts, each with their own quiet smile, but all with the same sentiment: This is your home now. Welcome to the madness that is Malory Towers."
