Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. The Chalet School was co-ed. (All books)

Answer: False

In the later books the preschool attached to the school did accept little boys, but the main school has always been only for girls.

2. Who is the first Head Girl of the Chalet School? (The School at the Chalet)

Answer: Gisela Marani

Gisela was among the first European girls to join the school. As the oldest, she was given the post of Head Girl, and made a success of the post. The other three were all Head Girls at other points in the school history.

3. What did Joey name the St Bernard puppy that she rescued from a watery grave? (The Chalet School and Jo)

Answer: Rufus

Bruno is the name of the puppy that the school presents her with as an adult after Rufus dies. Zita was Rufus's mother and Eigen is the little boy who helped her rescue him!

4. What is the name of Madge Bettany's twin brother? (Any book)

Answer: Dick Bettany

Twins seem to run in this family. Madge, Dick and Joey all have twins in their families in later books, and Joey even rises to triplets!

5. Which fictional country was Princess Elisaveta said to come from? (Princess of the Chalet School)

Answer: Belsornia

Like many of the places in the Chalet School books, Belsornia is a figment of Elinor M. Brent-Dyer's imagination.

6. What did naughty Joey nickname the singing master's sister, Sarah Denny? (Jo of the Chalet School)

Answer: Sally-go-round-the-moon

Joey was the source of many of the Chalet School's traditions. She also is credited with nicknaming Mr Denny 'Plato'.

7. Who was the first editor of the school's magazine 'The Chaletian'? (Jo of the Chalet School)

Answer: Joey Bettany

Young as she was, Joey's grasp of English and her imagination secured her the role.

8. In 'The New House at the Chalet School', Joey finds Dr. Jem's long lost sister, Margot Venables. What are the names of her two little girls?

Answer: Daisy and Primula Mary

Margot Venables later becomes the school's new Matron, after being nursed back to health. Her two little girls both join the school and later become wards of Joey and Jack Maynard after the death of Margot.

9. What is the real name of the little girl known as The Robin, or Robin Humphries? (The Chalet School & Jo)

Answer: Cecilia Marya

The Robin was named for her mother, who died not long before the little girl joined the school. In later books, the author seemed to think that the character was too old to be called 'The Robin', and shortened it to just 'Robin'.

10. This is an easy one. What did Madge and Jem Russell name their first born child? (The Head Girl of the Chalet School)

Answer: David

Dick and Mollie Bettany also have children around this time, twins named Peggy and Rix.
