To support Year 9 in their study of the Holocaust, we were visited by Seymour Kelly whose grandparents and uncle were murdered in the Holocaust and whose mother and aunts survived, having been enslaved by the Nazis as forced labourers. Using video footage of his mother’s testimony and family photographs, he explained to the students the story of his family.
