Freshly Remembered - Half a Century of School

Published by Whitcomb & Tombs Ltd, in 1973.

Muriel May writes clearly and well of each phase of her long and notable career, from pre-schooling to schooling to teaching to retirement, that there is sparkle and zest all the way through its pages. Freshness is the keynote and there is nothing stuffy about schools and school teaching as she recalls them.

Her memories begin in Edwardian days in Dunedin as she captures the spirit of a lost and vanished time, the past as another country. She recounts her days at High Street Primary, Otago Girls' High, Dunedin Training College, Otago University and Southland Girls' High.
