Jewish Museum Visit

Year 5 had an amazing visit to the Jewish Museum in Camden. We had a series of interactive and multi-sensory workshops. This encouraged us to learn about the vibrancy of Jewish religion and culture today. We also explored Judaism through key objects, contemporary films and guided discussions to understand what it means to be Jewish in Britain today.

We also discovered the story of the Exodus from Egypt through storytelling and the symbolism of the Seder plate. We learnt why Jewish people eat matzah (unleavened bread) during the week of Passover and why Seder night is different from all other nights.
