The convalescant home in New Brighton. Would this have been the old Maris Stella school. I can't place it at all

Was this the one that was bombed during WWII and a lot of people died, I presume it was knocked down or am I thinking of something else.

It became the Maris Stella and was not bombed or knocked down until the seventies I think? Now sheltered housing occupies the site in Rowson street New Brighton.
