Lebenswege von Opfern der Shoah aus Nordrhein-Westfalen

The exhibition “We, the six Million” was also shown in schools in Israel, for example in the Ort Yad Leibowitz High School in Netanya. The school already has a school partnership with the “Städtische Gesamtschule Stolberg” in Germany. They have done great projects together and are working on a new program for next school year.
After the 7th of October 2023 a lot of schools dedicated projects to students or alumni who were murdered or died in battle in the last 8 months. Ort Yad Leibowitz High School made posters for their three alumni as you can see on the third pictures and planted trees in their names, so that they will never be forgotten.🕯️
Together with Dr. Nikolaj Beier, Deputy Director of the North Rhine-Westphalia office in Israel and ORT School Network we visited the ORT Adivi School in Ashkelon, a college specialized in AutoTech, electrical engineering and hair design classes.
We talked to the principal, teachers and students about the challenges they daily face because of the ongoing war. Ashkelon was, at the beginning of the war, the most bombed city in Israel, and the school had to close until December last year because they didn’t have enough shelters for their students. The current motto of the school is “From survivors to leaders,” and the teachers and students do their best to achieve that.
This school would like to have a school partner with a German school in the near future, and “We, the six million” will try to find a good match for this school.
