The Crocus Project

15th Nov 2019

The P/7 class planted some yellow crocus bulbs in memory of the 1.5 million Jewish children who died during the Holocaust. The yellow flowers, which will hopefully bloom about the time of international Holocaust Day (27th January), recall the yellow Stars of David that Jews were forced to wear under Nazi rule. The class has planted the bulbs in a Star of David they made using sticks collected from the willow igloo. They formed the sticks into equilateral triangles and then tied the two triangles together (there’s always room for some maths!).
