A Seder Demo at Otzar Yerushalayim Boys' School
The cheder boys participated in a lively mock "Seder", preparing them for the special mitzvos of the upcoming yom tov.
At the afternoon program, the children baked matzos together. The yeshivah staff, headed by Rabbi Eli Schwartz, built a life-sized "oven" to round off the experience and make it feel like an authentic matzah-baking. The boys then experienced the entire matzah-baking process, from kneading the dough to removing the baked matzos from the "oven".
Pre-Pesach Day Camp at Otzar Yerushalayim Boys' School
Throughout the days leading to Pesach, the children of the cheder enjoyed a fun-filled day camp. Every day, a new activity was introduced – bubbles, puppets, popcorn, bird show, musical story time with the drumming teacher, and more. A great time was had by all!
