Today, on Yom Yerushalayim (Jerusalem Day), we celebrate the anniversary of the unification of Jerusalem that occurred during the Six Day War in 1967. This was a momentous event because the liberation of Jerusalem marked the first time in thousands of years that the entire city of Jerusalem, the holiest city in Judaism, was under Jewish rule.
Our children have been learning about the festival of Shavuot.
We learned about the book of Ruth, festival of harvests and first fruits, we also drew and coloured in a beautiful fruit basket, created yummy edible Torah and build Mount Mount Sinai from ice cream cones.
Our classrooms were full of education, fun and deliciousness!
Shabbat Shalom
