Adult Education
We offer various classes for members, including Judaism on Monday evenings and prayerbook Hebrew on Tuesday evenings. There is a shiur/study session on the Torah portion each Shabbat in the library before the service. Occasional courses are offered, such as leyning/chanting the Torah, along with sessions by guest presenters, such as Professor Edward Hoffman of Yeshiva University, New York.
Religion School
Our cheder/religion school, known as Gesher, which means ‘bridge’ in Hebrew, meets on Shabbat during term time, and welcomes children where either parent is Jewish and, crucially, a decision has been made to raise them as Jews. Our curriculum is designed to help children develop confidence in being Jewish and to teach Jewish values. Students spend half the morning learning Hebrew and half exploring Jewish life, festivals, ethics and history. Hebrew is taught through various activities, including art, games and music. Children also take part in family services with their parents, using a prayerbook they have helped design themselves.
To enrol your child in Gesher, or to find out more, please contact the synagogue office. Information about our pre-school age group, Pa'utot, is also available.
