Year 10 History

Our Holocaust topic

On Thursday, 12 April Year 10 History students visited the Sydney Jewish Museum in Darlinghurst. The Sydney Jewish Museum documents the Holocaust and the history of the Jewish people in Australia.

Students were guided through exhibitions on Hitler’s rise to power, ghettos and concentration camps. They also listened to a story from a Holocaust survivor and attended a lecture on the Holocaust. Students found the museum fascinating and eye opening.

The excursion complemented the Holocaust topic which students studied during Term 1 History.
