The Children's home in the Italian town of Selvino was active between the years 1945-1948 and housed about 800 Jewish children, holocaust survivors. The children studied what they had missed in school as well as various crafts which prepared them for their arrival in Eretz Israel. Some of the Selvino children made Aliya in 1946 while others came after the establishment of Israel and were received in various Kibbutzim.
