On 27 January we will be joining people across the nation lighting the Tower in the central quad at school in purple to remember the victims and to stand against prejudice and hatred today.
During lunchtime, we will be creating pebbles with remembrance images or messages. The pebbles will be placed in front of the Tower as a remembrance, honouring the victims of the genocide and their memory.
We will start the day with a school assembly to share information about the Holocaust and victims of the Holocaust. We will be discussing prejudice, discrimination and hatred.
