After Megilah reading everyone enjoyed a special Purim Shpiel performed by the students of the Or Avner Jewish Day School as well as live music, cotton candy, face painting, art projects, a balloon man and of course lots of L’Chaim and refreshments.
In school the children enjoyed a lively Purim Party with a Purim Shpiel competition between all the classes.
A separate Purim party and Seuda was arranged for the elderly as well as a party at the Jewish preschool. The Jewish Youth Club held a separate party for students and young professionals attended by over 100 people.
