The Crooked Girl By Diane De La Forest Divonne

In England, during the reign of Queen Victoria, a little girl from the aristocracy was killed. She was found in the forest near London. Her body was covered with blood.

Winchester in Summer

Our Beautiful Campus Winchester is looking wonderful this summer, and our campus is an inspiring place to learn and make new friends.

It involves striking heavy-weighted balls with a mallet, which is swung between the legs, and the object is to manoeuvre your ball through a series of hoops in fewer shots than the other teams. The flat lawns of Winchester and sunny weather provided the perfect setting for an afternoon game.
