Today we welcomed Mr Hermann Hircshberger to North West to speak about his experiences in Nazi Germany as a child and how he came to the UK in 1939 as a refugee with his older brother on the Kindertransport.
Children from Year 2 through to Year 6 were enthralled by his story and the lesson that he wanted to emphasise to all of us: that all people are created equal in the eyes of Hashem and we should treat everyone the same no matter what colour, religion or race they are.
