★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A sobering reminder of what the Jewish people suffered at the hands of Nazi Germany. It's also a celebration of the people who found a new hope and a haven in NZ

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An important place with an important message. Educating the wider community to recognize racial and cultural discrimination and prejudice, reminding us the horrors of what can happen if we all stand idly by.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A feeling of reverence is felt here. The stories of a few of the Jewish holocaust survivors who immigrated to NZ are told. And the button project, remembering the children lost in the holocaust.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It tells the story which should never be forgotten. So many died that we could live free. The art work is so life like that one can see the hairs on there arms.the tears in their eyes.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I believe that every child - and every adult who chooses to broaden their understanding of how ingrained prejudice influences even our seemingly most innocuous decisions - needs to visit the Holocaust Centre, as part of a wider programme of study focused on the necessity of tolerance.
The Holocaust Centre is a place of reverence where millions of innocent people, whose voices have never been heard, are remembered in the greatest hope that their fate is clearly understood to be the logical outcome of unbridled state-sanctioned human intolerance of any kind.
The Holocaust Centre is much more than a place of deep significance to Jewish people; It is symbolic of the much wider psychological disease of human prejudice; It speaks in monumental terms of cause and effect.
As a library, it is a repository of educational material, in the form of personal testimony from survivors - and academic study - of the shoah.
There is much to be learned here about human prejudice and resilience.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Centre displays several Holocaust survivor stories with connections to NZ. They are well done. It is not a big exhibit, but the volunteers are helpful. They also have lots of books if you want to do further research.
