School assembly for secondary schools for Holocaust Memorial Day 2026 - theme “Bridging Generations”.
Gives scale of the Holocaust in numbers, the stages of the Holocaust, and German laws which led to the dehumanisation, ostracisation and ultimately the mass murder.
The chain of events is covered with Pastor Martin Niemoller’s poem “First They Came…”, followed by the stages of the Holocaust as described by the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust.
