The inter-high school Convention held this weekend in Crown Heights concluded Sunday with a banquet at Bais Rivkah’s Campus Chomesh.
A three course dinner for over 800 participants from 14 schools was Mc’d by educator and lecturer Mrs. Myriam Swerdlov.
The guest speaker was Rabbi Mendy Samuels, Shliach in Simsbury, CT, who spoke about the convention’s theme of “Taamu U’ru Ki Tov Havayeh.” The girls were inspired to continue their mission of being lamplighters, spreading the message that if you only “taste” ruchnius, you will appreciate it.
The dinner included a resounding roll call representing each of the schools and spirited singing.

where are they
I’m a bnos menachem student and come on do ppl (br) not know that we have a name BNOS MENACHEM! Not ‘other skwls of crown heights’ like seriously! This whole convention is all about Achdus and this is called Achdus!!!! Srry owners of br we know u don’t like bm
i understand that bies rivka did all the work but they didnt ask bnos menachem to help. i know the girls there and i know that they would have gladly helped out alot. when i signed up for the convention, i thought this was about achdus and when i walked out, i felt that it was all about bies rivka. they only mentioned bnis menachem once and it was when they really had to. its just sad bc we r all in the same community and yet there is so much tension. and the sad part about it is that… Read more »
so amazing!!! im so glad I went!
good job, the entire convention was amazing and planned to every last detail. yishar koach!
Thank you for the complement but we, bnos menachem, didn’t do anything. But it is very nice that someone noticed and appriciated us!!!!!!!!!!!
y cant they say bm?they have to make the girls feel bad and left out?its disgusting
go brhs and ofcourse to chaya grossbaum and ita goldberg!!
I hate when every nice article online has to have arguments going on in the comments! The convention was beautiful, everyone in Beis Rivkah High School put a lot of work into it, and so did other people… the bottom line is that it was amazing and everyone enjoyed it a lot!! There is no need for arguing about minor details!! Sorry, just had to voice what’s going on in my head 🙂 thank you soo much to everyone who put work into making this past weekend the incredible weekend that it was!! You guys are amazing!!
:0 ) so cute! mamesh!
of course we know how much work went into everything, WE are the ones who did all the work.i know for myself and all my classmates in bais rivkah how much in awe we were of everything that was put together for the weekend. and to the girl from bnos menachem, i agree that the name of your school should have been mentioned, but that does not reflect on how the school tried to make everyone feel welcome, because we really did.
Yes
You guys did amazing jobs thank you
A big Yasher Koach to all administration of Bais Rivkah High School and Morah Teichtel for this wonderful convention. But a special big thanks to Mrs Sarale Blau for coordinating this huge undertaking. May you continue to see much hatzlacha in your work.
She is obviously upset about something.
How would her ׳being proud of her community׳ help her?
Do you always deal with the people you know so ignorantly?
You’re not the only other school in Crown Heights!! THAT is very sad – you feel slighted right away!! What for? Why arent you looking at the positive side of life? Be proud of the accomplishments of your community!!
YAY LEAH GOLDSHMIDT,SARA DRIZIN, & HINDA”LE HERSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good question 🙂
Rochel Leah Sosover and Chana Leah lesches!! 🙂
Was behind the convention! Chanie itzik chenny shaina stery….
Lghs theres noone like us in the worrrllldddddddd!!!!!!
My sister came home and told this to me her kollel brother .
I agree with you 100%
Isn’t it sad that some ‘grown ups’ never actually grew up?
BH you have so much going for you as a bnos menachem high school student.
Stop worrying … Some people have not looked themselves in the mirror in a long time to ask “who am I and what’s really bothering me”
How sad.
But you ,chazak!!
Hi I’m a bais rivka girl and I wanted let you know that I absolutely thought this convention was outstanding and was awed by each event and ESPECIALLY because I am in bais rivka I was able to see close up the tremendous work that was put it into this not only did one person loose sleep but many many girls did. And not only me But I heard it from all my friends how they appreciated each detail and you can tell someone cared.
I think thats rlly not true and nice to say about bais rivkah girls. The hours days and months that went into preparing this amazing convention for everyone to enjoy- we did it we made it happen- for all the out of towners to enjoy.
Grate job mrs. Sarale Blau!!! We are very proud of you!
@ the banquet????
Long Live Rabbi Samuels, gezunt & nachas by the whole miushpucho!
enjoying so much untill we were called “other schools of crown hieghts” number 1: we are one school number 2: our name is BNOS MENACHEM are we such an embarrassment to c”h that we can not even be called our name?!?! personally, i think this shows alot on how “awsome” br is. the farbrengeners said that their goal is that we walk away with a changed mind set, and yes, after these dissapointing scenarios, my mind set has changed alot (although completly not how they envisiond!) i thought br was, at convention, trying to be amazing hosts, and role models,… Read more »
Go MBCM!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe every year it should be hosted in different HS cities?
Great job Bais Rivka!!!!! Kol Hakavod!
I’m so proud to be an alumna!
loved everything, i came as an outsider and everything was spectacular beyond, but the only thing that bothered me so much is that the beis rivkah girls didnt apprecaite anything. THey just took it as it was all normal. There was so much work going into it and the chassidus and the speeches were so inspiring people out of the school would dream for this. Just shows Aize who ashir hasamech bechelko. u can have it all and still not care. just sad.
thank you to all it was beautiful. so professinoal and the speaker was amazing and the food was great. 🙂 so sad its over
why arent u in any pictures?? shy girl
Lghs lghs there’s no one like us in the world!!!!!
leah goldshmidt thinks something is hysterical
