Summary
In 1958, Jill left her home in the Victorian town of Kyabram to attend Methodist Ladies' College (MLC) as a boarder. In this coming-of-age memoir she interleaves her MLC story with lively vignettes of her early school years, the family newsagency, church, and country community life. This is a deeply personal account of teenage struggles with parental and sibling relationships and with MLC's discipline, study demands, tough living conditions and rigorous religious education. Jill's daily life as a school boarder, her rebellions, emotional highs and lows, and encounters with Dr Wood, MLC's charismatic principal and pastor, are described with honesty, hilarity and sharp critical insight.
