The Twins at St Clare's
Miss Theobald welcomes Pat and Isabel O'Sullivan to the school, and assumes they must be shy, but in actual fact, the twins have just decided to be difficult because they didn't want to come to St Clare's. She deals with the twins' French problems by arranging extra coaching with Mam'zelle and helps Kathleen Gregory when she steals from others. She is very understanding and helps the girls when in dilemma. Although soft Miss Theobald doesn't take kindly to Prudence Arnold when she cheats. She is very helpful and helps Bobby Ellis to not be very don't-carish.
