A Question For Anyone Who Remembers This School?

A Memory of Romsey.

Just wondering if anybody remembers this school? I have been looking for my mother's children's home as she was boarded out in I believe the Romsey area for absolutely ages. I have just seen this picture and wondered if it was indeed a children's home in the 1930s?
My mother was illegitamate and hidden away for 6 years until her mother reclaimed her in 1938. I have searched lots of children's home lists in Southampton with no results as such.
I would really appreciate anybody remembering if this was a children's home??
Thanks ever so.

hello Diana I went to school here in the 60s, La Sagesse convent it was called & I loved it there & the chapel I remember a lot of signing and frequent trips daily to the Abbey I also remember storie of a ghostly nun which I whole heartedly believed !
