Posted

Sixth graders at Shulamith School for Girls in Cedarhurst were joined by their mothers and faculty members for a bat mitzvah celebration challah baking event.

The evening began with an uplifting cantata, performed completely in Ivrit. Mothers and daughters had the opportunity to participate in one of three different activities: Torah study with Morah Chana Schwartz, learning the mitzvah of challah and braiding challot with Morah Shoshana Fischman, and dancing joyously in the Shulamith gym with Sima Gefen.
