Tonight's Yavneh Leil Shishi event was described by many students as the best one yet! It was the final session in a series of events held throughout the month of Elul, focusing on Sefer Torah, Tefillin and Mezuzos.
We were honoured to host Rabbi Shloimi Schwarz, local Sofer, who led the boys through an unforgettable hands-on experience, demonstrating writing with a quill as a real Sofer. Each student tried writing their own name with a real Sofer's quill. Rabbi Schwarz also shared fascinating Halachos related to writing Sifrei Torah, Tefillin, and Mezuzos, bringing deeper meaning to the session. Across the room, boys were presented with a pile of Passul Mezuzos. Their challenge? To spot the mistakes by comparing them to a Kosher one. The boys eagerly participated, and prizes of personalized keyrings, handwritten by Rabbi Schwarz, added to the excitement. The event also included a hands-on experience with Tefillin in various stages of production. Each boy had the unique opportunity to insert the four parshiyos into the Tefillin Shel Rosh, following the correct order for both Rashi and Rabbeinu Tam interpretations. The wonderful evening concluded with pizza and chips, a perfect end to an enriching and fun-filled night. A big thank you to our anonymous sponsor and all the Rebbes who made this event possible!
