| During
her fifty six years in England Mother Geneviève opened
eighty eight Convents engaging in education, health,
child care and parish work. After her death in 1903,
there were further developments including Convents in
Ireland, Canada, South Africa and, latterly, Romania. The Sisters came to Banbury to teach in 1847. They took over a free school for the poor and a private i.e. fee-paying one. The second generated funds to sustain the first. Later they would move into secondary education and teacher-training, first at Selly Park and later at Newbold Revel, near Rugby.
