Beginning a New Year

We welcomed old and new friends to our first days of classes.  There were many reunions and just a few brief tears!  The weather was glorious and shared playground activities helped forge new friendships and ease those first-day jitters.  The beginning of the Jewish New Year with Rosh Hashanah was celebrated in our classrooms with snacks of apples and honey, apple printing, and the blowing of the shofar.  Families brought food and groceries for the local food bank, an ongoing commitment Ohav Shalom has made to the North Hills Community Outreach.  It was an exciting start – we can’t wait to see what our new preschool year brings!
