By engaging in the "Everybody Had a Name" exhibition at the Melbourne Holocaust Museum, our Year 10 and 11 students investigated historical artefacts and had an opportunity to explore the lives of Melbourne-based Holocaust survivors.

Students understood the relevance - and importance - of learning about the Holocaust in today's world. Students (and accompanying staff) were inspired by the survivors' bravery, fairness, kindness, hope and perspective. Participants were challenged to reflect on their own roles as individuals and the impact their choices have on people in our community.
