Our students went up north this week to our annual overnight Golan tiyul. We packed an extraordinary amount of activites into our two days there. Our students were privileged to explore this beautiful region, hiking Mt. Arbel and the Banias Springs. We learned about the ancient history of the area, visiting the historical site of Gamla. Our students also used this tiyul as an opportunity to hear about the modern battles for the State of Israel that took place on the Golan, viewing the Syrian border from Har Ben Tal, and viewing the Oz 77 documentary about the Yom Kipur War. We were treated to a visit to the famous De Karina chocolate where our students tried their hand at chocolate making themselves. Finally, at night, we enjoyed a concert by Simply Tzfat, to add to the ruach of the event!
