Any Senior Phase pupils interested in participating in the Lessons from Auschwitz Programme and possibly going to Poland later this year, should see Mr McPake, Social Subjects Department, as soon as possible.

The programme is run by the Holocaust Educational Trust and consists of an orientation session followed by a visit to Poland to visit Auschwitz.  After the visit there is an opportunity to reflect on the visit and the contemporary relevance of the lessons of the Holocaust. Finally students who attend, with the support of their teachers, seek to spread the lessons via assemblies.
