- gladdened the heart of the seniors at Bernard Betel
- baked delicious Oznei Haman hamentashen
- created magnificent masks and headdresses
- had artistic face painting
- prepared and enjoyed a festive meal seudah
- prepared and gave each other a mishloach manot
- volunteered at the Purim Carnival at Beth David
- gave money to the poor matanot l'evyonim
- sang and danced
We know you will enjoy this photo album of the culminating day as the children reveled in their costumes dancing with Gal and Ishai and enjoying the sports-themed activities.
Thank you to our Shinshinim Gal and Ishai for all their hard work and enthusiasm while preparing for and celebrating Purim.
