Last week we visited the Sinai Academy in Bloubergrant. It was a very fun to be at a Jewish church [ synagogue ] when we arrived the boys were given kippahs. And were separated from the girls the Rabbi was talking about the Jewish religion then we read some of the Jewish bible and prayers after that they took us to the senior primary and the kids there put on a little show for us telling us about shabbat and shabbat is when the Jewish people go off electronics on a Friday evening 8 minutes before sunset the mother lights the candles with the children and when everyone arrives they eat bread,drink wine or grape juice and sing shabbat songs with friends and family until Saturday evening . It teachers us that to enjoy every second of our life they also sang shabbat songs to us and we ate some very yummy bread :3
