Reply:the chalet school series. i cant remenber the author but if you look it up on the web youl find out pretty quick. there was about 60 of them written
Reply:I was about to suggest Malory Towers and St. Clare's by Enid Blyton but it seems you have already read these. Personally, I really loved them and looked for others dealing with the same setting and here's what I found and liked:


The Little Princess by Frances Hodgeson Burnett


What Katy Did At School by Susan Coolidge


Daddy Long Legs by Jean Webster(this one is more about college but I guess you'll like it nevertheless)


Patty and Patty Grows Up by Jean Webster


The Chalet school stories by Elinor Brent-Dyer


School Under Snowdon, School on Cloud Ridge, School on North Barrule, New Schools for Old, Chiltern School by Mabel Esther Allan





Also there are books about girls in boarding schools by Angela Brazil, Dorita Fairlie Bruce, Elsie Oxenham.I don't know much about them for I have never read any of their books.





While searching for more books like the one you are looking for, I came across an interesting site of publishers, I believe who specialise in these type of books. Maybe you could check it out. Here's a link for you:

Reply:Anne Digby wrote a series of fourteen books set in a girls' boarding school called Trebizon, the first one is 'First Term at Trebizon.





Elinor M Brent-Dyer's 'Chalet School' series was written over a long period and is set in a school in Austria which is run by an englishwoman but takes girls of many nationalities. The first book is 'The School at the Chalet' there are a great many books in the series.





Anthony Buckeridge's 'jennings' books are set in a boys' prep school and are very funny, the first one is 'Jennings Goes to School'.





William Mayne wrote a series of four books which are set in a cathedral choir school, they are; A Swarm in May, choristers' Cake, Cathedral Wednesday, and Words and Music.





Antonia Forest wrote a series of books about a family called the Marlows, several of them have boarding-school settings, Autumn Term, End of Term, The Cricket Term, and The Attic Term





Mabel Esther Allan wrote several books that are set in progressive boarding schools: School Under snowdon, School on Cloud Ridge, School on North Barrule, New Schools for Old, Chiltern School





'Daddy Long-Legs' by Jean Webster is set in a college rather than a school, but it is a really good story full of lovely details about college life in the early 1900s, and if you enjoy school stories you will probably enjoy this book too.
