Primary School
Do you want to empower your children to learn, connect and engage at an early age? Enrol your children in the BJE Jewish Journey today!
The BJE Jewish Learning journey in primary school provides a foundational knowledge of Jewish traditions, festivals, lifecycle and history and commences with SRE (Special Religious Education) or ‘Scripture’ as it’s commonly called.
The BJE Jewish Social Journey in the primary school enables your children to connect with Jewish friendship networks and peers in their local area and where possible in other parts of NSW.
BJE’s Natif Program is ‘an alternate to’ or ‘in addition to’ a traditional shul-based Bar or Bat Mitzvah. Students will embark on a rite of passage journey, based on Jewish values of Tikkun Olam, kindness and integrity.
