A special ‘Latkes Ovent’ took place on the 4th night of Chanuka hosted by the Ohr Menachem boys school in Crown Heights. The annual ‘Neiros Lehoir’ evening is just an opportunity for our every talmid to shine.
It began with Kita Vov presenting life-size models of all Keilim of the Mishkan with their Melamed Rabbi Levi Belinov. This comes following months of in-depth Limud Hatorah, learning about the mishkan in parshiyos Teruma and Tezave and of the Beis Hamikdash – in Mishnayos Yuma.
Menahel Rabbi Mendel Yusewitz invited Reb Berel Lipsker of the Vaad Ruchni of Cheder Ohr Menachem to light the Menora of Pirsumei Nissa. The Hadloka was followed with an amazing ‘Haneiros Halalu’ sand by the Ohr Menachem Kita Hey Choir led masterfully by Hatomim Avrohom Rachamim.
The parents and talmidim were addressed by the menahel kloli Rabbi Menachem Mendel Hendel. He shared how the cheder has been a beacon of light for the Shchuna in Yiddishkait, Chassidishkait and Leading a life of Geula. He thanked all the staff and parents and concluded with benching all with Birkas Kohanim.
Kita Gimmel took the stage and presented Perek Gimmel Tanya Baal Peh as a preview for parents of the amazing results of our 12 perokim TBP program. When kita gimmel concluded, the leaders of the program Rabbi Chanoch Henich Hecht with Rabbi Avrohom Rainitz, Curriculum Director of cheder, gave out seforim to the first acheiver in the TBP program.
Then all watched powerful story of the Rebbe brought to life via video presentation created by kita zayen and hatomim Avi Fridman. The cheder’s Tzivos Hashem Base Commander Hatomim Meir Shlomo Zaltzman gave all talmidim who advanced and grew in their rank.
