On Tuesday 12th September, Y6 visited the Holocaust Centre to find out about the impact that WW2 had on children who were Jewish and lived in mainland Europe. We followed the story of a young Jewish boy called Leo through an interactive museum experience.

The children then had the opportunity to meet a Holocaust survivor, called Hedi Argent, via Zoom and to ask her questions. It was a real privilege to listen to the life-story of someone who has seen so much in her 93 years.

This was a memorable and important day for the children and it highlighted why it is important to learn from the past to inform the choices that we make in the future.
