All About Seforim and More in Oholei Torah!

Organized by the PTA of Oholei Torah the kids were introduced to host of activities relating to Hey Tevet and Seforim. There was a book binding workshop, a lesson in Safrus where kids each got their own quill and piece of parchment, they learnt about various book authors, said Lechaim and danced to music played by Yehuda Piamenta!

A big fair was setup in the lunch room where kids were able to buy books and participate in a Chinese Auction on everything from seforim to an Ipod Nano preloaded with loads of Niggunim, Seforim Shelves and a Shtender. The kids were also shown old Seforim, some as old as 300 years old.

    Chanie and Chanie (and everyone else involved) – great great job! The kids really got the impression that the victory of Hey Teves is for all Chasidim. And they got an deeper understanding of the importance of Sefarim. Kids learning in a more engaging, enjoyable way – a learning model that works!

    I like the sleeping kid with his note! Just wish there would’ve been a picture of my son. You usually catch him. Oh well, next time.

    this is another great way for our kids to build a library. Just as the Rebby wanted. I impressed that the PTA made this possible.
