Sukkot Is In The Air

Fall is here… and with it, the holiday of Sukkot!

On Sunday, our Pre-K students read the story “Engineer Ari and the Sukkah Express” and built their own sukkah on our new felt board:

Thankfully, the weather cooperated (even if it was a bit chilly!) and everyone was able to visit our new outdoor sukkah, and to take a turn shaking the lulav and etrog:

A big thank you to Ms. Freed for helping everyone to enjoy their time in the sukkah!

And now – on to the next holiday! So…

Chag Sameach… Have a joyous Simchat Torah!
