St.Joseph's Girls Home. Boston Spa

A Memory of Boston Spa.

Whilst my brother lived just down the road in St. Mary's boys home, Boston Spa.myself & 2 sisters lived in St. Joseph's catholic girls home. This was in the late 60's.
I first went to the primary school in Clifford, St. Edwards I think. The headmaster was a Mr Haynes.
Then I attended the John Fisher school in Harrogate.
Does anyone know if St. Joseph's children's home in Boston Spa still exists?
