The Journey Online

Want to explore The Journey digitally? Our online learning programmes are a great way for primary aged children to access Leo’s story, our exhibition and survivor testimony.

The Journey Online is an educator led programme that includes 'Leo's Journey' and a survivor testimony talk. 

Option 1 - Leo's Journey and survivor talk

Leo's Journey is based around our exhibition about a 10-year old Jewish boy called Leo who lives in 1930s Berlin.

• Issues around identity
• The increase in persecution
• The role of propaganda
• School life in Nazi Germany
• Leo’s eventual departure as a refugee on the Kindertransport to the UK.

The survivor testimony is a one hour talk with a Holocaust survivor who will share their experience and answer questions from your class.
