IVDU's Newsletter 7

Last week on Thursday we came back to school refreshed and a bit exited because we still had a bit of energy left from Simchas Torah. We had some classes, then after a good break for lunch we went into a short class which would usually take about a half hour. We then had a quick mincha which was followed by going to the gym/pool. On Friday we went to daven, then we had some classes, while we were in class some of the staff put up some inspirational signs along the walls to let us know that something was looming in the horizon we have yet to know what it is. On Monday after we went to shul we came back only to find out that our classrooms have been switched for the time being. Our classes still continued even though we switched classes. We then had lunch which consisted of a small game of gaga where everyone had a great time either playing/watching. We then went to class until our next break and mincha. After we finished mincha we had class until the end of the day.

On Tuesday we started the day off by resuming halachot of Shabbos which was followed by davening. Classes went right after that. When lunch came around we eat our lunches and some of us went and played gaga. After we played and eat we went to 101’s class to see Mrs. Cowan’s wedding live on Facebook. We then finished the day with mincha and a short class. On Wednesday it was a similar set up with the classes but mincha was at 2:05. On Thursday we had our usual class, and then we went to daven. After davening we had some classes before lunch. At lunch class 101 went to prepare the chulent with the help of Rabbi Bornstein, while everyone else went to enjoy lunch in the lunchroom. After lunch we had a short class then we had mincha. When mincha ended we went to the gym/pool. After the time at the gym expired we went back to class for another short class, which ended the day. On Friday the day started off with a Halacha class which was followed by davening. Davening wasn’t in the usual shul because the shul underneath needed a minyan and we thought we could help them out. After the new experience we came back to school and started to learn. After the classes and breaks passed we all congregated in the multipurpose room for chaburah. We also wanted to wish a happy birthday to Azriel because his birthday is today. We would also like to say good luck to Arieh Kaplan and Yosef Amos on going to Magen David to further their studies.
