Jewish Life this term has been wonderful and we have had so many fun and exciting experiences!

This term was our first opportunity to lead prayers, including our daily morning prayers, Birkat HaMazon, Torah Service on Thursday and Shabbat every Friday. Shabbat has been an enjoyable experience for Years 3-6. We love singing and praying together with our community and especially love hearing Shabbat stories with Rabbi Ninio. Every Monday lunchtime we meet with Mr Carpenter, Josh and Mia to discuss and plan Jewish Life in Primary School and our next projects.

Whenever we have celebrations within the School we always have lots of fun whilst dancing and singing our hearts out through Ruach dancing. We started off the month of Adar with Rosh Le Regel (Crazy Hat Day). It was so fun to see everyone’s crazy hats and smiles; it really was a hit. The next week was our big Purim celebration. The parade and ruach were fabulous. After recess we performed our Purim Parody Song and then we watched an amazing Purim play by the Jewish Studies and Hebrew teachers. To finish off a fun day, we headed down to the park to help run tug of war, knitting, drawing, and other fun sports activities. 

Overall it’s been an amazing term for us Jewish life leaders and we are so excited to share more of our experiences with you soon.
