Between November 1938 and the outbreak of the war, nearly 10 000 mostly German Jewish children were sent by their families to Britain, unaccompanied. Children of all ages, from infants to early teenagers, travelled on the Kindertransport trains across Germany and Holland, then ferries across the English Channel to Britain. Sending children to safety in this way was their parents’ last resort to ensure their survival. Only a few of the children spoke English, most had no family or friends in Britain and almost none ever saw their parents again. ------------------------ Yahoo!
