Resources to help secondary students think about the Holocaust and its legacy
Holocaust Memorial Day takes place on 27 January each year; the same date that the Nazi’s largest death camp, Auschwitz-Birkenau, was liberated in 1945. It’s a time for us to remember those who lost their lives and reflect upon the lessons of the past. This year’s theme, 'Fragility of freedom, invites us to set aside one day to come together to remember, and encompasses the hope that there may be one day in the future with no genocide.
To help your students explore the Holocaust in a sensitive way, we’ve hand-picked resources that present the facts, guide conversations and stimulate deeper thinking.
