The teachers genuinely care about each child's growth both personally and socially, as well as in their secular and Jewish education.

Their independent, social, physical, and creative skills are being developed.
We think that the relationship between the school and the parents is essential to your child's education.
To help your child reach their maximum potential, we want to collaborate with the parents.
Our door is always open for assistance, counsel, and support, and we value parents' opinions about our school.
We work to establish a learning environment that promotes active learning and fosters children's pride in their accomplishments because we firmly think that happy children learn best.
You should be careful to select the school that is best for your child.
We will be pleased to set up an appointment for you if you contact Mrs. Elfassy, the school secretary, at [email protected] or me at [email protected] or 0161 766 2888.
