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.

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.

    Between Two Rivers: The Story of Mesopotamia takes readers on a captivating journey through the ancient land nestled between the Tigris and Euphrates, where civilization first took root. This book explores the rise and fall of Mesopotamian societies, from the dawn of urban life in Sumer to the grandeur of Babylon and the mighty Assyrian Empire.

From the monumental Ziggurats of Ur to the majestic Ishtar Gate of Babylon, the book showcases the architectural and cultural marvels that defined this ancient world.

The book also explores Mesopotamia’s legacy, demonstrating how its contributions to law, literature, science, and governance have influenced subsequent civilizations and continue to shape modern culture. 
    Between Two Rivers is a comprehensive and accessible exploration of the ancient world that highlights the enduring significance of Mesopotamia—an eternal land that bridged the past with the present and laid the groundwork for much of what we know as modern civilization.

    Fifteen leading writers explore what Gilmore Girls means to them in this delightful celebration of a contemporary TV classic. 
     
     
     
    Fast-talking, warm-hearted, and endlessly rewatchable, Gilmore Girls has bonded real-life mothers and daughters since 2000, when its iconic pilot introduced us to Lorelai, Rory, and their idyllic Connecticut town of Stars Hollow. More than twenty years later, it has become one of the most-streamed TV shows, ever. 
     
     
     
    In an anthology as intimate and quick-witted as Gilmore Girls itself, bestselling author Ann Hood invites fifteen writers to investigate their personal relationships to the show. ("It's a show? It's a lifestyle. It's a religion.") Joanna Rakoff considers how Emily Gilmore helped her understand her own mother; Sanjena Sathian sees herself—and Asian American defiance—in Lane Kim; Freya North connects with her son through the show; Francesco Sedita discovers an antidote to pandemic loneliness; Nina de Gramont offers a comic ode to the unreality of Stars Hollow. For anyone who identifies as Team Logan, Team Jess, or even Team Dean, Life's Short, Talk Fast reveals what Gilmore Girls tells us about ourselves—and why it matters.

    A highly accessible and easily adaptable conceptual framework that helps educational leaders plan, leverage, and sustain change as they create more equitable schools. 
     
      
     
    In Navigating Social Justice, Martin Scanlan introduces a comprehensive social justice schema that melds organizational learning with leading for equity.

    Scanlan's schema brings together five dimensions—inclusivity, communities of practice, critical formation, social ecosystems, and practical wisdom—that work together holistically to eradicate inequitable practices and policies and promote robust teaching and inclusive learning. For each dimension, the book features real-life vignettes that focus the conversation, exercises that encourage reflection, and suggested opportunities for the application of its central ideas. Each chapter also gives access to online tools, extending its utility. The practical guidance offered in this book not only will enable educational institutions to best meet the needs of families and community members but will also help leaders cultivate the moral and intellectual judgment needed to address social justice issues in schools.
