Holocaust Survivor visits Redborne

 survivor talkOn Wednesday 12th March, a Holocaust Survivor Zigi Shipper came to Redborne to give year 9 a talk about his time during the Holocaust. It was very moving to hear about the extreme hardships that he and his friends suffered at such a young age. He was separated from his parents and left with his grandma, but part way through 1943 he was taken from her and left on his own with ill and dying strangers not knowing where he was. To have Zigi come in and explain to us the horrific scenes he saw and went through was emotional, yet educational to listen to and we can't thank him enough for giving us the opportunity to listen to his story. I am sure that it made us all feel how lucky we are to live the lives that we do.
