I have memories of being a child at Nore House, of there being an annual event in which children camped out in the grounds I think they would have been cubs and scouts.

Also of every Easter a big Easter egg being dropped of a balcony after which we would all dive in to get the pieces of chocolate.

My memories as a child at Node House are good. I can remember an old car we played in.

Hi to all just registered with roots, after searching for information on Node House.
I come from a large family (seven sisters and four brothers). Not all of us was placed at Nore House. But I think 4 of us was. I know that I was there between 1956 / 7 . Aged 18 months
Are nanny who looked after all my brother and sisters was nanny Tricia. When we left at five years the family was split up into twos and went into various care homes.

I would be interested in any photos or information relating to Nore House and nanny Tricia
