Plot Outline:
St Trinian’s, a school for “young ladies” with its anarchic doctrine of free expression, brings together a motley crew of ungovernable girls who, using their wit and ingenuity, save the school from bankruptcy.

Gemma’s Role:
Gemma Arterton plays Kelly Jones.

Head Girl and Captain of the Field Hockey Team. A natural born leader amidst the chaotic landscape of St Trinian’s . She rules the roost at St Trinian’s from the dorm room antics to their unorthodox money making schemes to keeping the teachers in line. An athletic sporty girl that sports padlock as a necklace, a flower and snake tattoo on her left arm and packs a wallop of a hockey shot! She has a small flirtation with Flash Harry who sells the St Trinian’s contraband to the outside world. Kelly masterminds the heist to save St Trinian’s where she must bring together all the cliques, Flash Harry and the teachers to save the school that she loves.

“She belongs to none of the cliques. She runs things. She just makes sure everybody is in order. She’s a bit of a gangster… She keeps an eye on the teachers as well.”
