Tom Coleman and his best mate Lavender Gibson are pupils of Greenhill School and leaders of a bunch of teenage idealists. Together they learn to take whatever fate has to throw at them – and throw it back. Whether it's turning a deadbeat soccer team into a well-oiled winning machine, putting on a play, or just plain growing up, they conspire to let no evil bully, soccer coach, adult-in-general or kid-in-particular, get in their way.

8x½ hour children's drama

Based on the Greenhill High Series by William Taylor.

The Worst Soccer Team Ever

book cover

Never was there a more unlikely band than the Greenhill Intermediate School 'C' team. What a bunch of sporting also-rans! They were all shapes and sizes, from the captain (and our storyteller) 'Tom-tit' Coleman to 'Griller' Spinks, total goalkeeper simply because he filled the goal mouth completely. And the girls of the team: Lavender Gibson (Lav for short, because she wanted to be a radical feminist plumber when she grew up), and the pink delicate Maggie Smith ... she even dressed in pink on the field!

Break a Leg

book cover

"Break a leg" is a good luck wish for those about to go on stage. Sure enough that's just what happens when the students of Greenhill Intermediate School produce a play "Snow White and the nineteen dwarfs"..

Making Big Bucks

What is it that makes the world go round? Poor Tom Colman, Griller Spinks and their friends soon find out exactly what Lavender Gibson has in mind for spinning their world on its 'axle' : money! The Christmas holidays loom, the Greenhill kids are broke, and Lav intends them to change all this for the price of an advertisement in the Gazette, offering their paid services for the kind of jobs they always have to do at home for free.

Fast Times at Greenhill High

book cover

When the Greenhill crowd (Lav, Griller, Maggie and Tom) take over the running of their high school newspaper, they capture an eager readership with their blend of scandal, politics and personal advice.
