Students at Metro Detroit Jewish day schools are keeping busy 
and doing all sorts of great things. Here’s just a sample.

From Our Day Schools

Chidon Ziyonut at Farber

Farber Hebrew Day School students recent-
ly enjoyed Chidon Ziyonut, a program run 
by the school’s Bnei Akiva Shlichim. Over 
the weeks leading up to Yom HaAtzmaut, 
Farber students have learned about the 
State of Israel by interactive activities. There 
were small presentations and plays, such as 
a re-enactment of the first Zionist Congress 
and a play about David Ben-Gurion and his 
life leading up to the establishment of the 
State of Israel. 

Passover Bingo at FJA
As part of the BetterTogether in 
a Box program, Frankel Jewish 
Academy students and Jewish 
Senior Life participants kicked 
off Passover with Passover 
Bingo, created by the students. 
Each resident also received a 
unique picture frame decorated 
by their buddy to brighten up 
their day.
