Today at the Junior School, students were immersed in Jewish Life activities, learning about the upcoming festival of Shavuot.

Students arrived at school, dressed in white casual clothing and flower accessories to connect with being like angels at the receiving of the Torah at a blooming Har Sinai.

They were involved in fun and educational activities throughout the day, including creating Shavuot themed crowns and wonderful additions to the Har Sinai mural collaboration during the assembly.

The Early Learning Centre children then joined the entire Junior School for an entertaining play deciding which would become God’s chosen people.  Daniel Light led the children in beautiful songs and there were some surprise appearances by some characters that included an Israelite, a lion, a Melbourne footy player, one of the 12 spies and even a pirate!

Prep students performed the song I am a Mountain.

At lunchtime, all King David students were served ice cream as is the tradition of dairy over Shavuot.
