In honour of Tisha B’Av, Gan Rimon and Gan Seorah gathered for a special mat time focused on community and kindness.

To bring the concept of unity to life, having discussed (in an age appropriate way), the destruction of the First and Second Temples and the huge sense of loss, string was used as a visual metaphor in a special activity. They stood in a circle, holding the yarn and shared words of kindness. As the yarn connected them all, it created a powerful visual of strength through unity, showing them how strong and supported we are when we stay connected.
