Happy Chanukah

On the 3rd day of Chanukah, our congregation got together to celebrate this beautiful, poignant festival.

Obviously, as with any festival there was food involved, following the service, Latkes and doughnuts aplenty were enjoyed.

Most people brought their own Chanukiah, which with a bit of adult help, and after reciting the brachas, were lit by the children.

This year’s children’s activities included making Chanukiah out of chocolate waffles, clementine segments and raspberries or glace cherries according to each child’s preference. The children also coloured in cardboard dreidels which were then taken home to be cut out and stuck to make their own dreidel.

Having made their chanukiah, some of the children took them home, some simply ate them & why not? The kids then enjoyed playing the dreidel game with wooden or plastic dreidels.
