Introduction to the Holocaust

Exciting news from the museum

The Adelaide Holocaust Museum and Andrew Steiner Education Centre is currently closed for redevelopment. However, our programs continue at a temporary location, through school incursions, and online for regional schools. Education programs resume on-site in early October 2025. Galleries reopen in 2026.

All education sessions offered at the museum are carefully linked to a broad range of subjects across the Australian Curriculum and SACE, and are underpinned by our belief in bringing students safely in and safely out of these confronting histories.

We are developing a series of engaging learning programs, professional development opportunities for educators, and downloadable resources to support teaching and learning about the Holocaust in the classroom.

Please fill in the form below to make a booking or an enquiry about our education sessions during the redevelopment.

Content Warning

The Adelaide Holocaust Museum understands that all visitors need to be brought safely into this history, and safely out of it. Our work is underpinned by this educational approach. We aim to teach all visitors about these devastating and confronting events that occurred without traumatising them.

Educators are advised that the Museum’s permanent exhibition includes content that some young people may find distressing. If you have concerns please contact our Education Coordinator (education@ahmsec.org.au) when booking. We are committed to delivering an age-appropriate visit of our permanent exhibition that supports your teaching and learning objectives.

The Adelaide Holocaust Museum and Andrew Steiner Education Centre acknowledges and pays respect to the Traditional Custodians and Elders of this nation, past, present and future, and the continuation of cultural, spiritual, and educational practices of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. AHMSEC stands on Kaurna land.
