This autumn during school holidays we didn't have time to be dull. Hesed was together with us! That's why 7 days of rest passed too fast.

   The whole week we were preparing to Chanukah holiday - learning its history, Tradition, we were even in time with making cards with pictures of Chanukiah on them. And to check our understanding we held a quiz. Questions for quiz were composed by us, but for evaluation the answers on them we asked a religious program leader of our Hesed.

   During holidays Hesed "Rachel" workers and community center members helped us both to learn much things and to have a wonderful rest. We were in cinema "Kolos", walked along the shore of Pavlodar river, and swam in a swimming-pool of "Neptun" fitness center. Together with psychologist we played learning games in Hesed.

   Especially we remembered the last day spent in a camp. We were offered to try ourselves in a role of volunteers. We packed packages for grandmothers. Then held Shabbat and wrote this letter for you.
