Robbie Waisman

    
We were honoured today with a visit from Robbie Waisman who spoke with us about his experiences of being in Buchenwald camp during WW11. I know many of you were deeply moved by this experience and I hope you share your thoughts and Robbie's message with your friends and family. Stand up for those who need you and remember to cherish those you love.

Above are pictures of Robbie as a boy and with Leon Bass his Liberator.

Here are some links with further information if you would like to know more about the Holocaust or Robbie's life.
