As part the school's commemoration of Holocaust Memorial Day and in parallel with their current study of the Holocaust in the RE curriculum, a group of Year 9 pupils represented the school at the Polish Centre in Hammersmith. 

Alongside poignant addresses from Lord Alf Dubs, Francis Morton (from the Holocaust memorial charity generation2generation), and Smajo Bešo (from the Bosnian Genocide Educational Trust), the girls delivered their own presentation on the tragedy of lives lost over the course of the Holocaust. The girls spoke movingly and were a credit to both themselves and the school.
