With the previously established material and the fact that most people's ships early on are their homes, and larger crews are just their family, one possibility is that GC is where the minors and noncombatants were kept out of the line of fire while their ship was part of the operational fleet. Not in every case, of course, but for a number of them... it would also be a rationale and precedent for setting up a school there which more than just your group's own kinder attend.  

It's a few kilometres square of generally peaceful farm and parkland?

It sounds like a nice peaceful place to rest an recuperate for active units withdrawn from the front lines for a few days to recover.

Hmm.  Actually, yeah.  A little more wild wood than parkland, but yeah.  And if it's the Fenspace equivalent of shipping kids out of London during the Blitz, well, that's obviously the reason PS238 was started.  (Well, that, and after a year of nearly a dozen under-tens and teenagers running wild through the ship, the adults had to do something with them... )
