Kindertransport

Do you remember we watched this video in class? The man in the video is Nicolas Winton and today would have been his 111th birthday if he were alive. It's such a moving piece of film isn't it?
He was responsible for the Kindertranpsort and you can read more about that here. I met a woman who was rescued by Nicholas Winton, she came to speak to my Year 6 class many years ago.  She had a very interesting life story to tell. She never saw her family again after leaving Germany but she lived a long life and interesting life in England.
