Tonight a joyful Jewish festival that honours resilience, gratitude, & togetherness, Sukkot (Feast of Tabernacles or Booths) begins. Its marked by time spent in temporary shelters, & reflection on nature, harvest, & shelter.

Wishing all in #RWBA, our Trust & #HtFMeUs communities marking Yom Kippur a meaningful day of reflection, prayer & renewal. As the holiest day in the Jewish calendar, it’s a time to fast, seek forgiveness, & begin the year with intention — ending with sounding of the shofar. G’mar chatima tova

On this day, in 1928, Holocaust survivor, Nobel laureate, humanitarian, activist, author & teacher, #ElieWiesel was born.
Our inspirational friend's #RWBAcademy #RWBA6 HGP support, guidance & encouragement was immense, his legacy continues.
His memory remains a blessing.

Great to welcome 5 new teachers & 3 alumni colleagues to today's #HtFMeUs orientation. Lots of interest & excitement for what opportunities lie ahead.
Can't wait to get started & see how these schools make the project their own in their settings.
