Published 07/02/24To mark International Holocaust Memorial Day on 27th January 2024, Riverside Meadows Academy - St Neots took part in a range of activities. During lessons, there were lots of discussions and sharing of information and the whole school took part in an assembly on Friday as well as most of the school going on visits to the National Holocaust Memorial Centre and Museum.
We think it’s really important that we recognise what happened in this difficult period of world history and think about what prejudice and hatred can, and did, lead to.
Our world in 2024 is still an uncertain place and racism, antisemitism and homophobia are still very real. It’s important that we explore the reasons why the Holocaust happened, and the school is proud of the steps our wonderful young people took in ensuring that the future is a more understanding and safe place for everyone.
