Anne Frank: A young woman
 
 Anne Frank was a young German Jewish girl who immigrated to Holland. When the war started her and her family were forced to go into hiding.
 
Everyday life
Anne Frank was born in 1929 and was a German Jew. She had one sister called Margot. She first started her diary one her thirteenth birthday. In July 1942 she was forced to go into hiding with her family and some other people (Mrs van daan Mr van daan and Peter van daan.)  The place that the Frank family went into hiding in was called the secret annexe its door way was hidden by a bookcase.
 
Found!
In 1944 the Germans found the secret annexe and arrested the people in it. Anne and her sister Margot were transferred to a concentrated camp in Germany. Mrs Frank (Enid Frank) died in Auschwitz-Birkenau in Germany 6^th January a 1945 starvation and exhaustion.  Anne and Margot were transported from Auschwitz in October to Bergen-Belsen near Hanover Germany. Margot died from poor hygiene and a few days later Anne died. Anne and Margot’s bodies were dumped in Bergen-Belsen. The only one of the Franks that survived was Mr Frank (Otto Frank) he survived the concentrate camps. Otto was allowed back into Amsterdam in 3^rd June 1945 and he later moved to Basle in Switzerland where he meets his next wife Elfriede Markovits. Otto then for filled Anne’s dream and published his daughter’s diary. Anne and her family had a huge affect on the world maybe because she had such a traumatised past maybe because we was so young. Anne Franks diary has sold millions of copy’s world wide.

Hope school rockets are the first in the country. The school is competing for a £500 prize. No school has yet been put down on the top ten flights except for Hope C.E. Primary.

Last week, in an eggs-citing D.T. lesson Class 2 pupils had fun firing rockets to compete and hopefully win a national young engineers competition known as the ‘eggs factor.’
Hope school has been split up in to six teams so Hope has a good chance winning. According to their teacher, Mr. Rowe, only the 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd will get prizes. Teams have to try and get their egg the furthest without breaking. Every team in Britain is competing for a £500 prize. This is what Jack Pope of Hope C.E. had to say about it; “I enjoyed making the rocket, but I’m even more excited because our team is on top of the leader board with our rocket, the Rooster Booster.”
The competition will end at Easter so other schools have to hurry. On the eggs-factor website a video clip of the rocket flights can be seen together with the leader board. More Information can also be read from the young engineers website about the rules and approved components visit www.youngeng.org.
