During our
Rosh Chodesh Adar Assembly, the girls joined together to sing
Hallel, listen to a beautiful
D'var Torah from our own 5
thgrader,
Miri Epstein, and
Rabbi Stein shared how we can create our own feelings of
simcha through doing
mitzvos and acts of
chessed. The girls then learned about an exciting opportunity to support an important organization,
Chinuch Atzmai in
Eretz Yisroel.
Rabbi Yosef Pollack of Chinuch Atzmai shared a story about the organization's impact on families in
Eretz Yisroel, and our own
Tehila Cohen spoke to the entire Upper and Lower Elementary divisions of the school about her own fond experiences in a
Chinuch Atzmai School. Through this
tzeddaka drive the girls will have ability to earn prizes and raffles.
