Interactive Fair
Amazing Integration Initiative:
Seeach Sod Students Facilitate an Interactive Fair for Children from Regular Schools!
It was a touching image: hundreds of sweet children from regular preschools marching excitedly through the doors of Seeach Sod, the popular special ed. center that turned into a special attraction! The photos of smiling children from the community, clearly having the time of their life interacting with the special students of Seeach Sod, encapsulate the essence of true integration!
Choir Performs at Siyum Hashas!
The Pirchei Seeach Choir was honored to perform before a 10,000–strong audience at the English Siyum HaShas, which took place on August 5th in Binyanei Ha’muah. As the choir got on stage and began singing Carlbach’s classic “Tov L’hodos”, the crowd started singing, dancing and clapping along with avid enthusiasm.
L’Chaim with the Boyaner Rebbe
An emotional L’chaim took place in June in honor of the opening of the new group apartment on Haturim Street. Some of the residents in this apartment belong to Chassidic courts that are located in that area.
Chabad
The Chabad “sheluchim” in Seeach Sod partook in activities at the Chabad Convention that took place in the International Convention Center in honor of 19 Kislev – the day marked in Chabad as “Chag Hageulah”.
Flower Booth at Health Fair
Hundreds of women and children were drawn to Seeach Sod’s booth at the Health Fair and expressed interest in purchasing a plant as a symbol of recognition for the children of Seeach Sod and its staff members, who do such incredible work nurturing their students to grow and blossom. In exchange for buying a plant, participants were given the chance to join the circle of Seeach Sod friends and received a membership card entitling them to partake in Seeach Sod events.
Yarchei Kallah Visit
Seeach Sod was privileged to host a group of over twenty visitors from Lakewood who came for a week of Yarchei Kallah learning sessions in Eretz Yisrael.
