Elm class's trip to the synagogue!
After the trip from the 493 we finally arrived
at the Synagogue.The two ladies were called
Ros and Cynthia.They told us that the men
had to wear a kipper (a Jewish hat) so they
would be respectful and if the girls want to
wear a kipper they could but they did not
need it to be respectful.
They told us that that they even needed
donations to actually buy a Torah scroll.
They told us a bit of Hebrew and we
learnt that an actual Torah scroll is
longer than a football pitch.
The Torah scroll is not made out of paper,it is made out of
parchment.
