Children's Day Center continues its work in Petropavlovsk. In a short period of time children-participants became friends, learned to respect each other.

  Hesed "Efraim" workers and the representatives of Jewish community center of Petropavlosk try to make every day of the Center's life unforgettable. Children meet with interesting people; they are involved in literary and musical evenings, watch plays.

  Recently Children's Center was delivered a lecture named "Tolerance- lessons of Holocaust". Lessons were conducted by Tamara Rodnaya, a teacher of history from school ¹ 43. From her stories children learned that in Hebrew "Holocaust" means "annihilation", a genocide of Nazi regime towards Jewish people. Constant and cruel annihilation of 6 million Jewish people by Nazi is considered to be the greatest crime in the world history. Every 2 Jews of 3 were killed.

  Grown-ups were also actively involved in the discussion. Due to lector's skill to highlight the material the participants of the Children's Center vividly apprehended the history of Holocaust. Children told that they would do their best for no nation ever suffer from discrimination on national or religious sign.
