Holocaust Memorial Day – 27th January 2022

Holocaust Memorial Day takes place each year on 27th January.

This is a day dedicated to remembering the six million Jews murdered during the Holocaust, alongside the millions of other people killed under Nazi persecution of other groups and in genocides that followed.

The date (27th January) marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp.

Holocaust Memorial Day is a time for people to come together to learn more about the past and take action to create a safer future. To mark this, two of our S6 pupils presented their Lessons from Auschwitz project to S4 History classes this week. They shared their knowledge of survivor stories and experiences.
