From Friday, March 31 to Saturday, April 1, our Bar/Bat Mitzvah class spent a wonderful Shabbat together at Woodland Trails in Stouffville, Ontario.

We asked the students about their experience attending the Shabbaton. Here is what they had to say:

• I have learned Jewish Laws
• We talked about certain Jewish justifications
• The Shabbat morning service was great and meaningful
• I enjoyed learning Birkat hamazon
• we learned new Hebrew words
• We enjoyed discovering our family’s roots

A big part of the Shabbaton was the social experience. The students enjoyed playing board games and field sports outside, hike and just being together as a group. They felt that the Shabbaton bonded them together and they had fun getting to know each other better.
