The warm feeling that that you get from celebrating the Miracle of Lights, Chanukah was felt throughout the Brandeis School.  The students, faculty, Board Members, and local Rabbi’s from neighboring temples all gathered to light our new Menorah.

Our youngest students, The Nursery was so excited to host their first of many Chanukah celebrations at the Brandeis School.  The Nursery celebrated the holiday with a Chanukah art project.  Our Nursery students dressed up as Chanukah neirot and danced and sang for their parents.

Great job and big thank your to Morah Lisa, Morah Orly, Morah Susanne and Mr. Laor!

The Music Conservatory at The Brandeis School held it’s 1st Concert. The students and their music teachers worked hard and demonstrated their talent and dedication to admiring parents and audience members. Thank you to Mr. Daniel Laor for establishing The Music Conservatory and for his vision of enriching our students’ worlds through musical study.

Wow!  What a performance!  The 3rd grade’s Chanukah presentation left everyone in such awe.  They truly did an amazing job.  Yasher Koach to the students, the talented Mr. Laor and Ms. Conaty, their fantastic teacher, Mrs. Shenhav and the famous Tali Dahari.

Our Pre-K and Kindergarten Students put on a

The Brandeis Family is always thinking of how they can help others.  Members of The Brandeis Student Council recently delivered toys to Winthrop Hospital’s Pediatric Oncology Unit in memory of Sean Riley!

Our front lobby was filled with so many wonderful donations for the Parents’ Association blanket and coat drive, and the OHEL Chanukah toy drive.

Yasher Koach to all of our middle school student election participants.  The students ran for several different positions: Co-Presidents, Secretary, Treasurer, Photo Journalist, Event Planner and Class Representatives.  Our Student Council promotes the love of  being part of the Brandeis Community both in and out of the school setting.  They hold dances, various fundraisers and everyone’s favorite…Spirit Week.

The Brandeis students and faculty joined together for the joyous climax of Simchat Torah…The Hakafot.  All grades from Nursery through 8th grade gathered together as they sang and danced with the Torah scrolls.  It was certainly a memorable event for all.

The Brandeis School goes all out to celebrate Sukkot.  Each grade not only had lunch in the sukkah but they also had “snack time” where they discussed the meaning of sukkot with Rabbi Kahn, enjoyed a healthy snack and sang songs.  The celebration contiuned at the Annual Sukkot Dinner.  The whole Brandeis Mischpaha was invited to join together in the Sukkah for  a wonderful meal, inspirational words and lots of music provided by our very own Rabbi Kahn.

Chag Sameach everyone!!
