Our visit to the Sinai Academy

Image
Last week we visited the Sinai Academy first we all sat down and a lady and man talked to us and told us interesting facts. Then they took us into another room there was some bread and some  grape juice in front of everyone and a few Jewish children came to speak to us. The children showed us a video about being Jewish every Friday night the Jewish families get together and have dinner together Shabat. The Jewish people also have a rams horn which they blow at Rosh Shanna that is a special Jewish festival. Jewish people speak Hebrew. Hebrew is often spoken in Israel. I really enjoyed this outing and I learned a lot. My favorite part about  it was drinking the grape juice it was very delicious.

The Grade 4 camp

Image
Last week we went on camp.We went to Simonsberg. When we got to school we went to the class room and then got onto the bus. At last we got to the Giraffe House, I watched a reptile show and than ate ice cream. At camp we did a lot of activities. I have two favorites the night hike and the obstacle course. I shared a dorm with Summer H, Lilly and Sadie When it was home time I was really tired, I was sad to leave but happy to see my family again. I loved camp it was the best.
