Tu B’Shvat Comes Alive with Crafts, Connection, and Community at Halpern Akiva Academy

(Calgary) – Halpern Akiva Academy was buzzing with joy and creativity on Tuesday, February 11, as they celebrated their Tu B’Shvat Grandparents and Special Friends Event! Families and special friends came together for a hands-on, immersive experience that brought the beauty of trees and nature to life in honour of Tu B’Shvat. Each classroom created a vibrant craft station, offering activities inspired by the theme of trees, while the highlight of the day was our Tu B’Shvat seder, thoughtfully organized by JNF Canada.

The Halpern Akiva Academy extended a “heartfelt thank you to JNF Canada’s Elliot Steinberg and his staff for their support, generous sponsorship of our seder and parsley plants, and for sharing their knowledge about the vital work of JNF throughout Israel. Their dedication to education and environmental stewardship continues to inspire our students and community!”
