In Week 5, various celebrations went on at our Primary School campus. On the Wednesday morning, our Preps shared a听colourful听time with their parents in the听Kikar听where they did crafts together, sang and heard听Mr听Lawrence talk about (and then show them) the Torah, which is such an important part of the Shavuot story.听Our Preps presented their bikkurim and then shared recess with their parents, who were very happy to be involved in such a wonderful day.听

Later that day our Year 4s and their parents celebrated Shavuot with an evening of Torah learning and delicious dessert. The evening ended with true Carmel听ruach听as parents were treated to singing and dancing by our very talented Year 4s.听听

Not to be left out, our Year 2s really shone at their Shavuot Assembly the following day, Thursday 13 May. They made a grand entrance from the back of the Sylvia and Harry Hoffman Hall, filing past their parents and wearing their听colourful听bikkurim crowns. Their beautiful songs and slick dance moves behind a sea of wonderful bikkurim offerings (which Rabbi White collected later for distribution) made everyone cheer very loudly! Chloe Z drew the name of this Assembly鈥檚 mensch out of a sea of mensch nominee names and chose that of鈥er own brother, Evan! Mazal Tov Evan.听Log in to Facebook to see more photos of the听, the听听and the听.听
