"'Not for School But For Life' is the story of Southland Girls' High School, one of New Zealand's finest and most respected schools. It is the story of 100 years of growth, development, difficulties and achievements - and of the countless girls and teachers for whom the school and its boarding hostel existed. The author, Olive Deaker, traced the school's story back to Southland's colonial settlement, and throughout the book's thirteen chapters, close links are established between the evolution of the school community, and the historical events in the wider community around it." - from dust-jacket blurb.
