As part of Women’s History Month and in the lead-up to International Women’s Day, we had the profound honour of welcoming Holocaust survivor Malka Levine to Gresham’s School. In conversation with our Head of History, Mr. Kinder, Malka shared insights from her deeply moving memoir, A Mother’s Courage, recounting how she and her two siblings survived the Holocaust.

Her story is a deeply moving tribute to her mother’s unwavering bravery, resilience, and sacrifice—risking everything to save her children. Malka’s testimony was both powerful and impactful, leaving a lasting impression on our Sixth Form pupils and staff.

We extend our thanks to Malka for sharing her remarkable story with us. It was a privilege to hear her speak.
