We seek opportunities each year to provide Jewish activities outside the classroom to enrich our students' total learning experience. These experiences provide a fun and enlightening way to expand our learning and to become better acquainted with one another in a more informal setting. Examples of previous field trips are:
 |
a Midrasha trip to Washington, D.C. to visit the Holocaust Museum and see the sights |
|
a trip to the Newton JCC to make Seder plates or Tzedakah boxes |
|
participation in the Walk for Hunger |
|
our Midrasha dance troupe, Chamshin, participates in the annual Israeli Dance Festival at M.I.T. in March |
|
some of our tenth graders participate in the Panim el Panim program in Washington, D.C. |
|
Confirmation Class trip to New York City |
|
visits to sukkot of teachers and classmates to fulfill the mitzvah of eating in the Sukkah |
|
curriculum-related field trips such as a visit to Levine funeral Chapel in Brookline as part of a life-cycle course, to the Mayim Hayim Mikveh in Newton and to synagogues in surrounding communities to learn about different movements of Judaism. |
