Year 4 Synagogue School Trip

Yesterday both classes, Campion and Oxlip went on a school trip to Bromley Synagogue. We got on the upper deck of the 208 bus. Luckily it wasn't too late in arriving.

When we got to the Synagogue, a lady took us to the prayer room and told us about the alphabet, some games and some festivals. They explained how the Jewish faith rest starting Friday Sunset until Saturday night.

Afterwards, the lady took us down stairs where some retired people come for tea and cake. She showed us what they drank and which was a special plaited bread and wine.

Finally she took us back upstairs for our 'pudding'. She opened the massive cupboard and showing us the torah scrolls wrapped in beautiful velvet blankets and the Yad. After our visit, we went on the bus back to school.
