Gibraltar School was founded as a school for young ladies by the two dear old Misses Pye now deceased. The long-suffering teachers now have their lives made miserable not only by their pupils but also by the present headmistress Miss Rowe known universally as Hard Rowe. Since Gibraltar is a private school they resign themselves to the fact that there is little they can do about it but they find help coming from a very unexpected quarter indeed.9 women
