What a lovely message to begin the day. I had an amazing teacher at college so her impact is still being felt. I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing if it wasn't for her. If I impact one life the way she did mine I'll be happy.

This program has enabled significant positive outcomes. Its implementation has fostered notable improvements within the school environment, the broader community, and the student body. Furthermore, my own professional progress has been enriched through the opportunities offered.

Tonight's evening class seems to have gone well. They want to continue exploring the complexity of the Holocaust next week. Someone asked a question so we'll explore Historic Antisemitism.

I am looking forward to the opportunity to explore something new. Following discussions with family and friends I will be leading evening classes that delve into various aspects of the Holocaust. I’m surprised by how little was/is taught about such a significant period in history

I found the talk to be both engaging and insightful, focusing on a remarkably well-written book. The book has certainly influenced my approach to source analysis with my students. Thank you to everyone involved in organising this event.

Sydney. Again. Another suburb with a large Jewish community and multiple Jewish communal facilities. No one just vandalises a car with a racist slogan. It is the product of endless incitement, demonisation and a belief that such attitudes are freely permitted, even celebrated.

Well that's an experience I'll never forget. Tonight I was invited to a conversation with Robert Rinder regarding the experiences and challenges of Holocaust Education. I feel the nerves may have got the better of me but I hope it comes out ok in the end after the edit.
