- Description
Letters poured in - most want 'Square' to stay is an item from the Sunday Times. It relates to the Kenwick Farm which was part of Sister Kate's Children's Home. The farm had a policy of finding employment for ex-students in country areas. A related item in the previous week reported on a 17 year old's reluctance to leave the city where he grown up, had friends and played football. The Sunday Times published some of the 'flood' of responses it received from the public.
