BWPJC Cheder teaches Hebrew language and the principles of Judaism to all children in the synagogue community, from early years through to bar and bat mitzvah.
Our vision is that all children will have pride in being Jewish and the knowledge to express their Jewishness with confidence.
BWPJC Cheder teachers create a friendly, engaging and fun environment, which focuses on being part of a community family and exploring our shared values and culture. In addition to Jewish Studies and Hebrew, BWPJC Cheder embraces the social aspect of learning and provides opportunities throughout the year to build friendships, confidence and identity – for example, through art projects, outdoor activities, cooking classes and the summer picnic.
BWPJC Cheder normally runs during term time on Saturday mornings. Online classes run on Sunday mornings, during periods of lockdown. Teachers and organisers are volunteer members of the community. Please contact the Head of Cheder if you would like to help.
