Christmas Holidays!

After a long and busy term, we are finally enjoying a bit of a break until 11th January 2010.

The term ended with the usual Christmas productions by the primary school, high school disco and high school Christmas assembly. Special thanks to the primary staff for all their input and efforts in making the productions successful and very entertaining. There was great participation from all the children! Even the many parents enjoyed it.
In the weeks leading up to the end of term the Tabeetha primary school (Reception-Grade 5) visited Kibbutz Nir Eliahu for a 'food experience' on Wednesday 9 December.
Throughout the day the children made their own orange juice, cheese, butter and pita. The children held baby chicks, patted various farm animals, ground wheat, and played a seed and tree products identification game during which, among other things, they learned where cane sugar and chocolate come from. At the end of the day the children ate the food that they had made along with fresh vegetables provided by the Kibbutz. Fun was had by all.
