An important update

Marla Bozic – Foundation Board Director

As Rosh Hashanah approaches, Jewish tradition encourages us to take the time to reflect on the year that has passed. For the Emanuel School Foundation, it has been wonderful to reflect on the success of the 2021 Capital Appeal, B’yachad event. We raised over $10 million to redevelop and expand the Adler Building, and, despite the challenges of heavy rain and flooding, progress on the building site is going well.

There is now a focus on building the new building with the following milestones reached:

  • Demolition works are now complete
  • Excavation works are largely completed as are the footings and piling
  • Rainwater tank works are well progressed
  • The new playground and structural works are underway and
  • The lift pit has been poured and approximately half of the new ground floor slab has been completed

Fiddler’s Journey to the Big Screen

We hope you can join us on Tuesday 25 October 2022 at 7:00 pm at the Randwick Ritz as the Emanuel School Foundation hosts the film, Fiddler’s Journey to the Big Screen as part of the opening night of the Jewish International Film Festival (JIFF).

This heartwarming documentary captures the humour and drama of director Norman Jewison’s quest to recreate the lost world of Jewish life in Tsarist Russia and re-envision the beloved stage hit as a wide-screen epic. Book tickets here.

 

The Emanuel School Foundation’s vision is to support the long-term viability and continued success of Emanuel School by enhancing the educational experience for current and future generations of Emanuel families. The Emanuel School Foundation celebrates the School’s commitment to nurturing student well-being, innovation, entrepreneurship, sustainability, and Jewish Life.

We look forward to the future, guided by the school values of Tikkun Olam, Social justice, religious pluralism, egalitarianism, acceptance of diversity and commitment to the State of Israel.

Your gift can change the lives of current and future Emanuel students and ensure that Emanuel School continues to be a school of choice for the community.
