Adam Carpenter – Head of Jewish Studies Primary

In preparation for Shavu’ot, Year 4 students have been reflecting on a passage in the Siddur, found in the Torah service that compares the Torah to a עץ חיים/Tree of Life. In English, students are focusing on elements of poetry this term and will making connections with poetic devices and phrases that can be found in the תורה/Torah and  סידור/siddur.

In class we spent time walking around the campus, looking at various trees and reflecting on the elements of trees and the role they play in our world and then making connections to the Torah.
