Juultje Ketellapper

Juultje Ketellapper was a classmate of Anne's at the Sixth Montessori School.

Juultje (Julie) Ketellapper grew up in the Rivierenbuurt district. She was a few months old when she came to live in Deurloostraat. From August 1932 she went to the Montessori kindergarten in Niersstraat.[1] On 4 September 1934, she started primary school, which she left on 13 July 1940.[2] In the school years 1937-38 and 1938-39 she was in Anne's class.[3] Then she went to the Gemeentelijk Lyceum voor Meisjes (Municipal High School for Girls).[4]

On 12 June 1939, she celebrated Anne's tenth birthday.[5] She was in the photo which was taken on that occasion, together with Anne and seven other girls.[6] Two weeks later, it was her birthday. Her friend Kitty Egyedi gave her a poetry album as a present. Anne Frank, Kitty Egyedi and Hanneli Goslar, among others, wrote verses in it. After 1945 it passed to Kitty Egyedi, who later donated it to the Anne Frank House.[7] Juultje herself wrote a verse in the album of Mary Bos on 5 September 1938.[8]

When the Girls' High School had to provide the names of Jewish pupils because of educational segregation in the summer of 1941, Juultje was in the class Gymnasium IV.[9] She then went to the Jewish High School and entered class 2L and the following year 3L.[10]

In the afternoon of 21 July 1942, her bicycle was stolen from the bicycle parking area of the Jewish High School. She reported it the next morning.[11]

Together with her parents and sister Josine she was arrested, probably during the raid in Zuid on 20 June 1943. On 6 July they were transported to Sobibor, where the whole family was gassed on arrival on 9 July.[12]

Addresses: Holendrechtstraat 45-I, Amsterdam;[13] Deurloostraat 50-I, Amsterdam (October 1928).[14]
