As part of Jewish Cultural Week, we are we are celebrating Sephardi week. With help from Harif, we are learning about different Sephardi cultures, eg; Moroccan and Yemeni Jews. We have been looking at the henna ceremony and experiencing henna on our hand. We have enjoyed Israeli dancing and dressed up. We are learning about the differences between the Sephardi customs and the Ashkenazi customs.
