Description

Sylvia Ashton-Warner was one of the great educational innovators of the 20th century. Working predominantly with small New Zealand country schools, particularly with Maori youth, at the furthest edge of the 'civilised world', she established classroom techniques that unlocked a storehouse of imagery native to each child. She was also a very successful author with dozens of titles to her name, including Spinster and Teacher.
