The story of Anne Frank has come to R.D. Parker Collegiate.  

An exhibit detailing the life of the well-known Holocaust victim is now at the high school, and will be available for public viewing tomorrow night and next Wednesday night from 6:00pm until 8:00pm at R.D. Parker. 

Vice Principal Jeff French spoke to Arctic Radio News and said that the exhibit features a 28-minute video, as well as a series of close to 40 panels that chronicle Frank’s life from birth until the time that the Allies liberated Europe. 

R.D. Parker student McKenna Brown, who is one of the student tour guides, added that there is also a display case of World War Two artifacts. The artifacts include two helmets (one from a Canadian soldier, one from a German SS soldier), a Mothers’ Cross, a tulip from the Netherlands and letters from Canadian soldiers. 

If you’d like to learn more about Anne Frank’s story, and the exhibit, tune in to Thompson Today on 102.9 CHTM tomorrow at 12:40pm and again at 5:10pm.
