Aish Sunday School

It starts with a warm greeting at the door, finding their personalized mug in the kitchen, and talking about their week over warm hot cocoa with teachers and friends.

We move into musical Havdallah and an interactive prayer service, where we make the prayers meaningful, relevant, and fun. Students then split into leveled reading groups where they can advance at their own pace — you can feel the positive energy in the room as students challenge themselves and support each other in small groups.

In class time, students learn about the Jewish holidays, the weekly Torah portion, Jewish values and mitzvot, and so much more — through games, songs, and cooking and baking experiences almost weekly.

We come together at the end of the day for a collaborative game between all age levels. Little ones make big-kid friends to wave to in the hallways at school or at the playground, and the older kids learn to be leaders and promote sportsmanship for the younger students. Most importantly, we end the day bringing home one key message from our learning — across all ages.

And we end every Sunday with lunch for the whole family. We know Sundays are busy with sports games and birthday parties, so we make it easy: the whole family sits down for a warm and wholesome lunch, connects with others, and leaves fueled — body and soul.
