Holocaust remembrance is important to us at PHSG, therefore we are supporting the Holocaust Memorial Day today, to remember the six million Jewish men, women and children who were murdered during the Holocaust. Our Library Team have created a reading list for students who are interested in recommendations on the theme of the holocaust. 

A huge congratulations to all the talented students who entered the Frozen Art competition! We were thrilled by the outstanding level of creativity and skill demonstrated by each submission.
