Welcome to the
BJE Jewish Journey
BJE empowers every Jewish child who attends a non-Jewish Day School with the opportunity to learn, connect & engage.
Do you want to empower your child(ren) to learn, connect and belong at an early age? If you do, you should enrol your child(ren) in the BJE Jewish Journey in primary school.
Do you want to ensure that your teens continue to learn, connect and belong, and build a stronger Jewish identity? If you do you, should enrol your teens in the BJE Jewish Journey in high school.
A welcoming space outside the academic setting, specifically tailored for primary and high school students enrolled in non-Jewish schools.
This is it. The focal point of the high school BJE Jewish Journey, and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Check out all of the exciting experiences we offered this year, check out our latest term video.
BJE is offering the Natif Bar/Bat Mitzvah Program, a Coming-of-Age Program, that is ‘an alternate to’ or ‘in addition to’ traditional shul-based Bat or Bar Mitzvah.
