Grade 10 History and Grade 11
Genocide Studies students visited the Columbus Centre and the Holocaust Centre
on April 27 accompanied by Ms. Brett and Ms. Tager. The Columbus Centre hosted
an exhibit of the art of Holocaust survivor Samuel Bak.
At the Holocaust Centre students met with Simon Saks who shared with us his experiences during the Holocaust. Both Mr. Bak and Mr. Saks were eight-year-old boys when WWII started. Students were fortunate to be able to hear about this terrible time in history from an actual eye-witness.
