Gesher – connecting you with the Emanuel community

Sonia Newell – Development Officer

Community connections continue

As I mentioned on this page last week, we are delighted to welcome so many new children to our School this year, a number of whose parents were Emanuel students.

Max Robertson just started in Year 5.  He is pictured here, so proud to be wearing the Emanuel uniform!  Max’s mum, Silvia Robertson (nee Malki) and her older brother, Jack Malki, finished Year 12 here in 1995 and 1993 respectively, whilst younger brother Daniel was here until Year 10. Their father, Max’s grandfather, Albert Malki, has his name on the Founders Board which hangs in the hallway of the Administration Building. There are so many familiar names on that Board of current families who were part of the very early days of the School.  Next time you come to Reception, have a look at the Founders Board – you too might see some familiar names.

Isaac Greenberg started in Kornmehl last week.  He is pictured here with his mother, Lisa Greenberg (Shapiro), from the Class of 2001.  Isaac’s father David Greenberg is also an Emanuel alumnus (Class of 2001).
