First Night Seder of the Year
Forty boys joined with the rebbeim for our first Night Seder of the year. Night Seder started off right after regular school dismissal with a quick cookies and chocolate milk refresher. Then it was off to the beis medrash to learn in groups with rebbeim. Rabbi Biron gave a short wrap-up shiur and the boys were treated to an Orange Delight dinner. This week’s Night Seder was sponsored in memory of משה בן רחמים ז״ל.
