It is the Hebrew month of Kislev, and Chanukah is fast approaching. Since Chanukah this year falls during winter break, we will spend our last Noar session of 2024 learning all about it. In honor of this learning, we invite all of your children to bring out their chanukah attire. Whether it is an ugly sweater, cozy PJS, or a sparkly Chanukah shirt, we can’t wait to see what you will wear!
We will return to Noar on January 12th for a semester full of exciting activities and special guests including visits from The Bible Players, Dan Nichols, and Charlie Kramer.
