 Ryan BATCHELOR (Southern Metropolitan) (17:41): (2304) My adjournment matter tonight is for the Minister for Children, and I ask, Minister, if you will join me on a visit to the Melbourne Holocaust Museum to visit their new Hidden exhibition. The Melbourne Holocaust Museum, in Selwyn Street, Elsternwick, is an incredibly important part of our community, an incredibly important asset and an enduring reminder of the tragedies inflicted upon the Jewish people by the Nazis, the memories of which continue to touch so many. The Hidden: Seven Children Saved exhibition is about children and designed for children to help tell them the story about how seven children survived the Holocaust in hiding – stories of bravery, kindness and perseverance as people risked their own lives to save the lives of others. It is an award-winning, immersive exhibit. I think it is an incredibly important part of the Holocaust remembrance story and education for the broader community, and I would appreciate the minister accompanying me to have a look at it.
