Students at Willow Creek Elementary School in Montague, CA, are honoring the legacy of Anne Frank by creating a memorial garden at their school. After reading The Diary of Anne Frank, the students, led by their teacher Catherine Gilbert, were inspired to take action in remembrance of Holocaust victims.
As part of this initiative, they are collecting flower seeds from residents and community members to plant in the garden. Sixth-grade student Ember emphasized the significance of the project, saying, “In loving memory of everybody who died during the Holocaust, we are doing a memorial.”
Gilbert encourages the public to contribute to the project, noting that any donations of flower seeds will help the students bring their vision to life.
