History has shown that Jewish
continuity has always been
predicated on Jewish education
and knowledge. Without knowledge
there is no pride, without pride
there is no commitment and
without commitment, there are no
Jews.
Research also shows that Jewish
communities, which do not have
their own strong secondary
schools, simply decline.
Today, we are living in a world
which is hostile to many of the
fundamental Jewish values;
family life, respect for
parents, teachers, elders and
fellow men. There is also a lack
of respect for standards,
discipline, morality, faith and
tradition.
If there is to be a vibrant
Jewish community in Manchester
fifty years from now, it is
vital that Jewish children
attend a Jewish school. Strong
Jewish education is an
imperative, so as to imbue
children with the knowledge of
and pride in their heritage and
identity. This gift will enable
them to face the world with
confidence, in the firm
knowledge of who they are and
where they stand.
The school promotes the values,
standards and discipline of the
faith and this will help ensure
that our graduates will become
model citizens and leaders
within the community... and
beyond. |
