The KTA just hosted a Book Talk with Vivien Sieber on her book Kino and Kinder. These are 3 Kindertransport children her grandmother took care of at Tynemouth hostel. Coming from a cinema owning family, she negotiated free movies at the local cinema to help Kinder learn English.

December 10. 2023, is the 85th anniversary of the date that the first Kindertransport left Vienna. Lore Segal was on this train. It was a small light in dark times. We remember, we share our stories, the tragedy, hope and resilience of the Kinder. We learn from them every day.
