Excerpt from Work and Play in Girls Schools Such were, I believe, the feelings and the thoughts of those who initiated just fifty years ago the great movement, which found its first visible expression in the foundation of Queen's College by Maurice and Kingsley and Trench and others like-minded and less known.
