Thanks for inviting me back! It was great to share where I’m at with Holocaust education in my school, and I really enjoyed reflecting on the journey and hearing the inspiring ideas of those about to embark on theirs!

Thanks #BeaconSchool2526 teachers for your commitment & engagement across residential. Special thanks to Clare Lawlor & IWM London, for hosting us one day, the insights & chance to visit Holocaust galleries, also to brilliant alumni, Ben, Nat & Renee for sharing experience. Safe journeys home. 1/2
