To mark Yom HaShoah , both schools held meaningful commemorative assemblies and programs. At UO, the Grade 11 Holocaust class led a program, preparing and presenting beautiful posters that told the life stories of various “Women of Valour” of the Holocaust. They also included a candle-lighting ceremony, thought-provoking remarks and an inspiring kumzitz. At YOC, students and staff participated in a candle-lighting ceremony and heard meaningful words from Rabbi Eddie Shostak. Students focused on different aspects of the Holocaust, including personal stories and songs, historical and contemporary Halachic questions, the evolution of Holocaust remembrance, and complex moral dilemmas. Thank you to everyone who helped on making these events so meaningful.
