Our visit to the Sinai Academy

Last week we visited the Sinai Academy in Bloubergrant.It was a great outing. The Rabbi blew the ram’s horn, it was very loud.I learnt about the Jewish religion and the things they do.They speak Hebrew.The Hebrew language comes from  Israel 4000 years ago.They believe the  ark of the covenant  is buried under the broken temple. They have a Shabbat meal every Friday with challah bread and grape juice.On every door is a mezuzah which they kiss every time they walk thru the door.The boys had to wear a kipper on there head.    .

Last week we we were on camp.We went to Simonsberg Cristian Centre. We went to Giraffe House  and we saw llamas, zebras, giraffes, snakes, spiders, goats and ostriches. My friends and I holded a 5 m snake. On camp we played in a mud pit and we did an obstacle course, Elkanah's Got Talent, we had a bonfire, we played in the forest and we build forts. When we got home I was so tired I just slept all day.
