A Chance to Have YOUR Say!
...at The Great Debate

As Shavuot approaches, interest in The Great Debate: Should You Send Your Child to a Jewish Dayschool, continues to grow, with lots of passion on both sides. 

With a great line-up of panelists, it promises to be one of the most stimulating forums the Jewish community has seen in recent years.

Best of all, because  it is a Q & A style discussion you will have ample opportunity to have YOUR voice heard as you engage directly with the panelists.

So come along and have YOUR say this tomorrow (Sat) night at 8.30pm.

Right after the Great Debate, some of the best of Young South Head will present Sleepless @ South Head - shiurim on a variety of inspiring topics.

Burn the midnight oil with us as you hear:

One of South Head's most sort after resources is the parasha sheet prepared by Brookie each week. It's really easy to read and follow. An altogether fantastic way to share knowledge with, and learn from, your kids.

This week in addition to the normal parasha sheet, you can also download a special one devoted exclusively to Shavuot. Learn all about this very important event in Jewish history.. When did we receive the Torah? What occurred while we prepared for this special event? Who was present at Mount Sinai?

You will learn this and more from the Shavuot edition of the South Head Parasha Sheet. Click here to download the Shavuot parasha sheet; click here to download the Bamidbar parasha sheet; or click here to go to our regularly updated parasha sheet page.

...what happened!?

Due to technical problems and staff shortages the emailing of the Daily Word has been a bit erratic lately. We hope this will be corrected real soon now. In the meantime, you can always access the Daily Word from our website  or by following us on Twitter (see the link on the top of this page.)

Torah can only be absorbed if you become a wilderness.Empty yourself of preconceptions & accept Torah on its terms, not through your filter!

*

Shavuot also means "vows". We pledged not to betray G-d & He pledged not to betray us for another people.

*

Sometimes we suffer so that we can better empathise with the suffering of others. To avoid unnecessary suffering, learn the lesson quickly!

*

"May ONLY good & kindness pursue me all the days of my life!" (Ps 23). Pray that you be nagged to do good things - it could be a lot worse!

Torah is deeply associated with the number 3. Why? G-d gave 1) ISRAEL the 2) TORAH so that they would transform the 3) WORLD - Rebbe

On behalf of the Rebbetzen and all of us at South Head, we wish you a joyous Shavuot. May we all receive the the Torah in a deeply, meaningfully and happily.

Shabbat Shalom and Chag Sameach

Rabbi Benzion Milecki
