School

I want to let you know about the exciting things we have coming up in our school in the new year. 

Progress Reports January 31: This will give you an idea of how your child is performing within the program.

Full School Prayers and Pizza: February 8, March 28, May 9

Rikudiyah (Israeli folk dancing) will start January 11 and is open to grade 3-6 students. 

Is your child interested in participating in the Rikudiyah dance festival taking place on Sunday March 29 at the Schwartz/Reisman Centre. Rikudiyah, the Israeli Folk Dancing Festival of Jewish Day and Supplementary Schools, is one of the key cultural events of the Jewish educational calendar. The festival celebrates Israeli music and dance and introduces these vibrant cultural arts to Toronto's Jewish children. 

Your children would participate in 1/2 hour rehearsals with Maya Cohen during religious school on Saturday mornings from January to March in preparation for the festival on March 29th.
