Dear Parents,
Richmond Synagogue Visit, Friday 1st December 2023
This term, Year 5 pupils have been studying Judaism and a visit has been arranged to Richmond Synagogue on Friday 1st December.
The children will need to be in school at the usual time. We will be travelling by coach to the synagogue at 9.30am and will be returning to school in time for lunch at 12.35pm.
During the visit the children will learn about The Sabbath, The Festivals and The Torah.
Richmond Synagogue is an orthodox synagogue so no food or drink can be brought onto the premises. The children will be offered a drink (water) and a nut free biscuit at the end of the visit.
The children will also be offered some challah bread as part of their experience. The bread does contain egg and is made in a factory which uses nuts. I have made the synagogue aware of the children who have allergies and specific dietary requirements.
Smart school uniform and blazer should be worn for the trip. There is no charge for this trip.
Please can I ask that you give consent for your child:
- to attend the trip on Friday 1st December
- to taste the challah bread
Many thanks,
Georgia Bruce
