Curriculum
Our study curriculum was meticulously prepared using professional guidelines. The program was established in accordance with the instruction of the Rebbe in respect to the education of Bnot Yisrael as described in Igrot Kodesh. A supplementary curriculum of Hebrew studies, Jewish history and familiarity of the geography and history of the land of Israel has also been developed.The aim of the program is to expand the horizons of our students by improving their existing textual skills and developing additional leadership skills. We also aim to give our students a firm foundation so they could be articulate in discussions and presentation of Torah views to others, as illuminated by Chassidut, regarding a wide variety of contemporary issues especially in relation to events in Eretz Yisrael.
The student is the focus of our curriculum and all subjects will be taught in an interactive and practical way. Field trips, special seminars, volunteering opportunities and joint activities with local students will form an integral part of our ten month program.
