A Message from Religious School Principal, Lois Tompkins
SPECIAL: Camp Hanukkah for kids this Shabbat, with Rabbi Rosenblum. Please see the paragraph under "Events at JJC"
Mitzvah Day is December 17!
Grades K and 1: will be making Hanukkah cards for River Garden, and birthday cards for one of our former teachers, Judy Reppert, who has been ill and needs some extra cheer for her birthday!
Grades 2 and 3: will be sorting collected items and making Hope Bags, to be distributed by our BASRS families to the homeless in Jacksonville.
Grades 4, 5, and 6: will be bringing collected non-perishable foods to the Max Block Food Bank at JFCS, and will help to stock the shelves while learning about this very important resource for members of our community in need.
Grade 7: Holocaust survivor, Morris Bendit, will be speaking to this class as they conclude their unit on this subject. Mr. Bendit will tell his story and answer questions. The class will be presenting a donation (from our tzedakah account) to the new
Holocaust Exhibit at Jewish Family Services. Any parents of 7th graders who would like to join us for this discussion are welcome. Mr. Bendit will begin at 9:30.
At 11:30, all of our children and staff will come together to receive treat bags (courtesy of Galinsky PTA), sing Hanukkah songs with Hazzan Holzer, and enjoy yummy sufganiyot!
Pictures will be sent next week - look for a special edition of Connections!
Wishing all of our families and staff a healthy, happy Hanukkah and winter break!
B'Shalom,
Lois
