Selected students in Year 12 received the opportunity to visit Auschwitz with students from other schools. This trip gave students the opportunity to be present in the moment whilst reflecting on historical events in such a unique place.

Ronni, who is in Year 12 at Westminster City School's Sixth Form was a part of this unforgettable experience. She expressed her appreciation, saying:

"Having the opportunity to take part in the 'Lessons from Auschwitz' program was an incredible experience. Although it was an emotional and challenging day, I was so glad that I was able to go. I have learnt so much that just cannot be explained in a book; in fact it was invaluable hearing about the personal stories of those persecuted whilst in the concentration camp."

'The Holocaust Educational Trust's Lessons from Auschwitz Project (LFA Project) is an educational and commemorative project that offers post-16 students the opportunity to learn about the Holocaust. Through the bespoke interactive online platform, two online seminars and a one-day visit to Poland, participants join others from across the country as they embark on an educational journey in which they learn about the history of the Holocaust and the role of camps such as Auschwitz-Birkenau and consider the individuals whose lives were affected by the Holocaust.'
