At Hebrew Gems, students experience Lag B’Omer in a truly memorable way. Gathering around a bonfire, they sing songs, share stories, and roast marshmallows, bringing this ancient tradition to life and allowing children to truly live and feel the spirit of Lag B’Omer.

In honour of Shavuot, students at Hebrew Gems experience the Torah up close, turning learning into a living moment. Through meaningful, hands-on activities, children connect to the giving of the Torah in a personal and memorable way, bringing the story of Shavuot to life.

At Hebrew Gems, students experience Rosh Hashanah in a hands-on and unforgettable way. Beyond learning about the mitzvah of the shofar, they transform a raw horn into a kosher, usable shofar themselves. Watching the shofar take shape in their own hands fills students with amazement and excitement, bringing the meaning of Rosh Hashanah to life.

Why so many love GEMS!
My son loves Chabad Hebrew School. He is so excited he cannot wait for Tuesdays to come around. He loves telling us what he has learnt and is proud to learn Hebrew. He enjoys learning all about the Jewish holidays and sometimes even teaches us.

Chabad continues to impress me with its outstanding Hebrew program with wonderful and dedicated teachers. My children really enjoy the weekly classes and attend happily! I love the emailed newsletter so I know what they are learning about and can see their smiling facing in the photos.
