Extract
There is a car driving up the road to the towering walls of the Wishmaker Institute, doing its best to avoid the unforgiving drop into the ocean below. As the car disappears beneath the imposing arch of the security gates, a sigh of disappointment spreads through the squashed group of children clustered around the window.
We’re all meant to be in our form rooms for break time, but word got out that there was a visitor coming and, as usual, there was a great race to get a glimpse.
