WINTER HOLIDAYS with C-Teen Ski Camp and Camp Shalom
From Perisher to Penrith … from Thredbo to Homebush … from the Snowy Mountains to Canberra… Winter Holidays at South Head Youth was one to remember.
We showed over 250 kids ranging from years K -12 how to Love Hashem … on the rush down the snowy mountain … on the ski lift at Perisher … on the trampolines and rock walls.. wherever we went we had an absolute blast.
C-Teen friendships were forged around the campfire singing beautiful jewish songs and the powerful singing of a Carlebach Havdalah service after an inspiring and uplifting fun Shabbat.
Shalom Campers got to learn all about Jewish superstars, minions vs minyans ;) overcoming obstacles, Ahavat Yisrael and of course Shabbat through a myriad of interactive, fun activities... From the Bowling, Trampoline Arena, Aquatic Centre and Indoor Ropes Course. Camp Shalom Winter 2015 was truly unforgettable!
A Massive thank you to all our amazing staff, chaperones, volunteers and of course campers for making these camps, "AN EXPERIENCE THAT LASTS A LIFETIME!"
Stop Press! We will soon be releasing our new term 3 programs and activities.
Keep an eye out for the exciting new Kosher Chef edition!!

IBM AND THE HOLOCAUST; The Strategic Alliance Between Nazi Germany And America's Most Powerful Corporation, by Edwin Black
In the 1930's no Computer existed. However, IBM's Hollerith punch-card technology did. IBM technology was used to organise almost everything in Nazi Europe from the identification of the Jews in censuses to the running of railroads. Only with IBM's technological assistance was Hitler able to achieve the staggering numbers of the Holocaust.
