Joint "Day of Good Deeds" - March 5th, 2013

By Dr. Yehuda Stolov | Executive Director

First all students gathered in the school yard and divided into groups. Each of the groups took one of the tasks for the day, such as:

Painting the walls;
Planting trees in various corners of the school;
Drawing paintings that illustrate joint life and mutual respect;
Drawing religious people of different communities;
Drawing traditional costumes of the two communities.

At the end of the day we held joint activities for the students: music, dancing and a joint lunch.

To conclude: we had an inter-cultural encounter between the students of both sectors, which testifies to the willingness of the students to contribute together good deeds for the benefit of the community and the environment and to take advantage of this opportunity to do something good, small or large. The students enjoyed very much the joint work and each one of them felt they contributed to the success of the day.
