This week in assembly and in class we have been learning about Rosh Hashanah. We have learnt that Rosh Hashanah is an important Jewish festival that commemorates the creation of the world. It is the anniversary of Adam and Eve and a day of judgment.
Penguin class have had a great discussion about the Jewish festival and compared it to important occasions and events that the children in our class celebrate. During Rosh Hashanah challah (a type of bread) is eaten for the ceremony. We discussed the meals that we usually have when we are celebrating a special occasion.
