About Suspend Judgement

The Suspend Judgement Program was developed as part of the 2020 Gandel Study Group who spent three weeks studying at Yad Vashem, Israel.

The program was designed to support extension learning about the Holocaust for students in Year 10-12 to engage in an enriching experience that replicated the learning at Yad Vashem.

Although the program has evolved, the essence remains the same.

At the core, Suspend Judgement is an education about humanity.
