"A school history, with a difference, this is largely the story of one family whose daughters founded a successful Adelaide girls' school. The eldest daughter, Margaret Brown, established her infant class in 1884, when her youngest sister was five. That foundation pupil, Mamie, relinquished her office as Headmistress of the school at the end of 1951 and remained a member of the school's Council of Governors until her death in 1968. During this period of eighty-four years thousands of South Australian girls and small boys came under the influence of a remarkable group of women, whose hard work, humanity, integrity and sense of humour have infiltrated the lives and homes of old scholars in many parts of Australia and beyond"--Book jacket.
