Samenvatting:

This is a history of St Joseph's Māori Girls' College, which has become the second oldest Māori boarding school and was started by the Sisters of Our Lady of the Missions in 1867. For over 150 years, the college has been dedicated to nurturing the aspirations of young Māori women. Its teachings are grounded in whānaungatanga, Māoritanga, religious values and academic excellence. The college has given rise to numerous Māori trailblazers in a variety of fields. This book brings together the recollections of former pupils, staff and whānau (over 160 interviews were conducted). At its core, it is a story of sisterhood.
