The 4^th grade students of Bnos Malka Academy gathered for a special occasion: the beginning of learning N’vi’im. As a unique siyum for finishing the first perek in Sefer Yehoshua, the students had a lavish breakfast and were thrilled to hear Rabbi Weichselbaum, Menahel, discuss the importance of learning Navi and the timely lessons for our daily lives. Students received a special Birkon as a gift to commemorate the morning, and they were able to make the connection that Yehoshua wrote the paragraph of Nodeh in bentching.

Rabbi Shlomo Pacht recently visited Yeshiva Tiferes Moshe, where he spoke to the eighth graders about personal growth and the fact that we should never stop building upon our learning and accomplishments. The talmidim learned to always keep striving for greater feats.

This year, IVDU Five Towns started a new initiative, Mitzvah Missions, where the students learn about a mitzvah/midah each week and practice that special mitzvah corresponding to the parshah or upcoming holiday. After learning Parshas VaYeira, the students continued their study on the mitzvah of Bikur Cholim. They learned that Bikur Cholim can be visiting the sick, calling friends when they’re not feeling well, and even sending something to someone to cheer him/her up when in the hospital. To practice this special mitzvah, IVDU Five Towns, with the help of Dr. Chaim Banner, made special Shabbos packages for patients in North Shore University Hospital. Each package contains electric candles that could be used in the hospital room, a Kiddush cup, and a beautifully colored get-well card. The students personally put together each package, knowing that they’re doing this important mitzvah of Bikur Cholim.

An overflow crowd of parents of Yeshiva Tiferes Moshe talmidim joined for a gala Melava Malka on Motza'ei Shabbos, November 12, that featured a lavish dairy buffet by Simchas Gourmet and a sushi bar by Eden Wok of Westchester.

The Cheder of Queens has been busy preparing for the weekly parshiot. For Parshat Chayei Sarah, the different classes prepared wells. For the unit of senses, the UPK class designed flowers to learn about smell. The 3 Pre-K class prepared challah and learned about a well too. Every day is jam-packed with new and fun activities for the students.
