Rosh Hashanah

Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and Yom Kippur, the day of atonement and forgiveness, are the two high holidays of the Jewish calendar. Children are introduced to these solemn, reflective holidays through a traditional prayer and a Tashlikh ceremony. They also learn about the symbolism of foods associated with these holidays, the special clothing that is worn, and the importance of the Torah and performing good deeds throughout the year.
