Hello Cropwood girls,
I was there in 1960ish can't quite pin point it, but although I was terribly homesick, there was no cruelty, our Head was a Miss Urquart and there was a miss Addis, i forget other names, I am so sad to hear, that it was such an unhappy time. Didn't you have any good times, like making dens and playing in the gorse or the big old tree, maybe you were not well enough, I was one of the girls that ran away along with another on the same day called Ann, I hope anyone of you reading this will post a reply, I have found one friend and we chat a bit about those days, but would love to hear from you Lorraine xx
Can I just clarify are we talking about Balckwell Converlescene Home or Cropwood Open Air School, two different places??
