On Sunday Rabbi Gavriel and Ronny took our bar mitzvah boys on an end of year trip. In the spirit of taking on new challenges, they went wakeboarding at Melbourne Cable Park.
Despite their best efforts, the boys literally ended up on their knees; switching their wakeboards for knee boards. We were blessed with beautiful weather and it was a fitting way to end a great year.
Some of the highlights were the holocaust museum, teffilin presentation, dad vs son’s soccer and plenty of food.
We wish our class of ‘24 much success in their (halachicaly) adult lives!

📸 Chanukah at Parliament 2024 🎉
Elwood Shule was proud to be part of this year’s inspiring Chanukah celebration at Parliament House, lighting up the night with the spirit of unity and tradition. Rabbi Gavriel joined fellow community rabbis and leaders alongside MPs and members of the government, including David Southwick, Jacinta Allan, Bill Shorten, John Pesutto, Dan Tehan, and more, to share the message of hope and resilience that Chanukah brings.
Thank you to all who joined us for this meaningful event—it was a beautiful reminder of the strength of our community and the support of our leaders in championing multiculturalism and faith in Victoria. 🕎✨
