Torah Academy students assisted Rabbi Avi Schochet of Etz Chaim Synagogue to prepare the lulavs and etrogs for the community.

The Bernard & Alice Selevan Religious School prepared for Sukkot by making beautiful decorations for the Goldman Sukkah at the Jacksonville Jewish Center. Our families then celebrated Sukkot in style at our annual “Pizza in the Hut” program, both in-person and online. Participants in both programs enjoyed a variety of activities including Sukkot Bingo, shaking the lulav and etrog, building model Sukkot, and storytelling. We even played a game to learn some of the rules for building a kosher Sukkah. A great time was had by all! Contact info@basrs.org for more information.

We shake the lulav and etrog up, down, and all around!
