The Boys’ Tzedaka Department, led by Eli Hollander ran a very successful Chanuka Fair on Rosh Chodesh Kislev. The hall was full of inflatables, table tennis tables, a range of fairground style games and lots of food! The money raised from the fair is going to JAMI and the school Wellbeing Fund.
Over the past 2 weeks, the Music Department hosted two GCSE Specialist concerts, highlighting the talents of our students. The boys’ concert took place on Tuesday 12th November and the concert began with an explosion of a performance combining drums and electric guitar.
