The purpose of Student Awareness Day on the Kindertransport was to honor survivors, their parents and the people who saved the lives of 10,000 children. “Our students understood that the Holocaust should be viewed in various perspectives and the Kindertransport is one of them,” Riviera Beach Prep Teacher Toshimi Abe-Janiga. “They made a personal connection between the past and the present and through Holocaust Education, we hope they can take action to prevent prejudice and discrimination.”
