Hebrew School

The IJC's Hebrew School aims to strengthen our children's Jewish identity and create informed Jewish citizens. Classes range from toddlers to B'nai Mitzvah.

When We Meet

Classes are held regularly on Saturdays and Sundays at the synagogue, with breaks for school vacation. Check out our schedule for more details.

Our Diverse Community

The IJC welcomes children and their families from a range of Jewish cultures and beliefs, including children of interfaith couples. While the primary language of instruction is English, the majority of our students and teachers are multilingual. All children, regardless of English ability and prior instruction in Jewish studies, are welcome.

What We Teach

The curriculum includes Hebrew language, religious holidays and traditions, prayer, and the modern Jewish experience. For youngsters, we emphasise crafts and song. Teenagers prepare for a Bar or Bat Mitzvah.

Tricks of the Trope: Chanting from the Torah
Courses taught by Anneke Silverstein

“When I chant from the Torah, the text comes alive. I sing the ta'amim and notice how beautifully the melody fits and enhances the words. There is nothing more empowering than bending over the Torah scroll with the yad in your hand and chanting the ancient sacred melodies!”

Chanting from the Torah is a beautiful mitzvah for our community, and we are looking for people to join our Trope Team.

 

Have you ever wanted to learn how to chant (leyn) from the Torah?

Have you read Torah previously, but would like a refresher?
