The new school year began with great excitement at Yeshivat Otzar HaTorah. The prayers on the two days of Rosh Chodesh Elul were held in accordance with the Ministry of Health guidelines, with each class praying separately and with the staff wearing masks. Rabbi Shimon Levy, CEO of Seeach Sod, was present, and he spoke to the students and distributed gifts.

Shiri  (fictitious name), a young woman with limited mobility, came to live in Seeach Sod’s HaChoresh apartment, a large two-story home for women with physical disabilities.

“We will do everything we can to enable students from Beit Shemesh to learn in the city itself – especially those with disabilities.” With these words, Mayor of Beit Shemesh Dr. Aliza Bloch began her tour of Seeach Sod’s new branch of Yeshivat Otzar HaTorah in Beit Shemesh.

“We chose to begin our annual rounds at the beginning of the school year at Seeach Sod, as the children in the special education system are of utmost interest to us,” Mayor Leon said during his speech.

In honor of Rosh Chodesh Av, a moving event was held at the new branch of Yeshivat Otzar HaTorah in Beit Shemesh.
