A dinner to celebrate 25 years of Bethlehem Tertiary Institute offers Tauranga locals one of the last chances to meet survivors of the Holocaust.
Bob and Freda Narev will share the story of their childhoods in Nazi concentration camps.
Now in their 80s, the couple met in New Zealand when they separately came here.
The dinner on Wednesday April 11, which is open to the public, is part of a three-day international conference.
BTI's CEO and Dean Dr Andrew Butcher said the conference would include keynote speakers from Indonesia, the USA, South Korea and Tonga; and 32 presentations from all over the world.
"We invite all those who care about education and creating communities of hope and justice to join us at the dinner."
