Stand up, Speak out, Make a Difference 2015
Dear Colleague,
We are writing to invite you to book a place for a group from your school at the Anne Frank and
You exhibition at Kala Sangam, St Peters House, 1 Forster Square, Bradford, BD1 4TY. Whilst the
exhibition is in situ during February and March. This is currently free of charge.
We have worked closely with the Anne Frank Trust UK in bringing their touring exhibition ‘Anne
Frank + You’ to Bradford once again, as part of the Stand up, Speak out, Make a Difference
Programme coordinated by Bradford Council Children’s Services. The Anne Frank Trust’s ‘History
for Today’ exhibition is currently working its way around ten of our secondary schools that are
involved in the programme this year. The exhibition links the story of Anne Frank with the
challenges and hopes of today. Some of the students involved will go on to train as Anne Frank
YOU ambassador guides for the exhibition in February.
‘Anne Frank + You’ examines the experiences of Anne Frank, and promotes understanding and
tolerance today. The exhibition is presented in two parts – historical and contemporary. The
historical section of the exhibition is focused around a near life-size replica of Anne Frank’s
bedroom in which she wrote her diary. It presents the story of Anne Frank and her family, with a
pictorial timeline charting the rise of Hitler, the Nazis and the subsequent Holocaust. The
contemporary panels present issues of identity and moral choices in modern British society.
Suitable for adults and children from age 10 upwards, the exhibition promotes British values and
equality, challenges intolerance, contributes to SMSC development and promotes positive
relationships between people from different backgrounds and circumstances.
We are offering two 2-hour slots for schools each day, between 10.00 and 12.00 and between
12.45 and 2.45. Each session will include workshop activities as well as being guided around the
exhibition by student ambassadors.
