HANC senior Shabbaton

This past Shabbat, Parashat Toldot, the senior girls were privileged to spend a Shabbat in the Woodmere community. The theme for the Shabbaton was “decisions” as it connected to many of the experiences of the Avot and Imahot who are mentioned in recent parshiyot. This represented the stage of life that the senior girls are currently in.

For Friday-night dinner, the girls enjoyed the hospitality of their respective hosts. Afterwards, they joined together for a lovely tisch at the home of their rebbe, Rabbi Weingot, and family. The girls were inspired by the stories told by renowned mechanechet Mrs. Suri Wiengot.

On Shabbat day, the girls made their way to shul at Aish Kodesh, and then walked to a hearty, spirited lunch hosted by their mechanechet, Mrs. Adina Waldman. The students spent the afternoon there enjoying each other’s company while participating in thought-provoking and fun activities.

The girls then went to the home of their principal, Rabbi Shlomo Adelman, who, together with his wife, Chany, hosted a beautiful seudat shlishit. During the meal, students were introduced to Mrs. Ashley Cohen, who shared her uplifting story of her personal journey as a ba’alat teshuvah. Shabbat ended with unified singing and ruach among the girls.

On motzaei Shabbat, the girls had a blast working together in an exciting and creative “Chopped” cooking competition. It was a fun and unifying experience for everyone. Thank-you to mechanchet Mrs. Adina Waldman for organizing this amazing Shabbaton and to all the teachers who hosted.
