Miss Havisham requested that Pip bring him to Satis House on his next visit.
Near The End of Chapter Twelve
"Tell me the name again of that blacksmith of yours."
"Joe Gargery, ma'am."
"Meaning the master you were to be apprenticed to?"
"Yes, Miss Havisham."
"You had better be apprenticed at once. Would Gargery come here with you, and bring your indentures, do you think?"
I signified that I had no doubt he would take it as an honor to be asked.
"Then let him come."
Conversation between Pip and Miss Havisham, Great Expectations, Charles Dickens.
(Page 96 of my edition.)
Miss Havisham gave Joe 25 guineas as compensation for Pip's apprenticeship.
Miss Havisham invites Pip over through Mr. Pumblechook. When Mrs. Joe figures out about this invitation "to play,"she forces Pip to go, in hopes of receiving money or something of that sort from Miss Havisham.
After Wemmick left for work, Pip went to visit Miss Havisham at Satis House to see Estella.
Pip is hired by Miss Havisham to be a companion to her and her adopted daughter, Estella. He visits Miss Havisham regularly, helps with various tasks around her estate, and becomes deeply involved in the drama surrounding her family.
Uncle Pumblechook and Mrs. Joe inform Pip that Miss Havisham, a wealthy woman in town, has requested for Pip to go and play with her at her estate, Satis House. This news excites Pip and marks the beginning of his expectations of a better life.
Pip ignores it because he knows what Miss Havisham went through with men before she adopted Estella. So when she did harm to him, he knew she was only acting like this because of her past. Thank you!
Miss Havisham wears the same, YELLOW wedding dress for her whole life after she was left at the altar. The dress used to be white, but after the years of not being able to let go of getting left at the altar by her fiance Compeyson, it used to be a beautiful, pristine white but has turned an ugly, decaying, yellow. This symbolizes what happened to her heart and trust after the tribulation.

Miss Havisham hears of Pip through Mr. Pumblechook. Excerpt: 'And couldn't she ask Uncle Pumblechook is he knew a boy to go and play there? Isn't it just barely possible that Uncle Pumblechook may be a tenant of hers, and that he may sometimes - we won't say quarterly or half-yearly, for that would be requiring too much of you - but sometimes - go there to pay his rent? And couldn't she then ask Uncle Pumblechook if he knew a boy to go and play there? And couldn't Uncle Pumblechook, being always considerate and thoughtful of us - though you may not think if, Joseph,' in a tone of depest reproach, as if he were the most callous of nephews, 'then mention this boy, standing Prancing here'--which I solemly declare I was not doing--'that I have for ever been a willing to slave to?' ~ Mrs. Joe Gargery; wife of Joe Gargery, blacksmith.
Miss Honey goes to see Miss Trunchbull to discuss the mistreatment of her niece, Matilda, at Crunchem Hall. Miss Honey is concerned about Matilda's well-being and seeks to address the issue of how she is being treated in the school.
