The new school buildings turned out to be even worse than Thomas, Pete and Jody had expected.

For a start, they were about three miles away from the old St Barty’s, right on the edge of town. Most people in Class Three had always walked to school because they lived very near it. But now they all had to come by car or bus. It was too far to walk.

On the day of the move to the new buildings, it was raining hard. Jody and the others waited at the bus stop, but half an hour went past, with the rain splashing down, and no bus came.

“This is dreadful,” said Pete. “My coat is letting the water in and I’ve got rain in my shoes.”

Just then, they saw Beresford Bigmore’s car, with its BIG 1 number plate, coming down the road.

“Look, he’s giving Hamish a lift to school,” said Thomas. “Perhaps he’ll give us one too.”

They all waved at the car, but when Hamish saw them he stuck out his tongue. The car whizzed past, its wheels splashing dirty water over them.
