Accompanied by Naor the music teacher, student council representatives Yahli and Yael Mo. 1, chairman of the parents’ committee Meir Friedman and Aliza educator V. 2 went out to make the Holocaust survivors happy as part of the “Good Deeds Day”.
The students and the educational staff arrived at the club with their hands full of goodies for the club members and a personal gift for Passover to each of the survivors. The gifts distributed are donations collected by the teaching staff and parents of the school.
The students of the choir performed a song in front of the survivors and sang a song with them in public. School staff and students celebrated five birthday survivors. Each of them received a personal blessing and a personal gift from the children.
One of the survivors said: “What lovely children were today, the salt of the earth. How much we enjoyed them and also the lovely teacher and father Meir Friedman. Bless you for all your deeds, you made people happy, and it’s all worth it.”
