“I enjoy Chumash lessons because I like to challenge myself with translating the pasukim (verses).” -Theo, age 7
Intent
At Yavneh Primary school it is our intent to ensure that core Jewish Values are weaved throughout the curriculum and not taught solely as stand-alone sessions.
We aim to;
- Make Jewish Studies engaging and applicable for students through real-world applications and experiential learning
- To provide students with the information and abilities necessary to live a full Jewish life
- To instil in students the courage to consider their own unique relationship with Hashem (G-d) and to express it in a variety of ways.
- To nurture the student’s excellent character qualities (middot), which are correlated with the Yavneh schools’ values.
- Foster a lifetime love for Judaism by being actively involved in Jewish and larger communal life through instilling a feeling of community.
