Netivot HaTorah
18 Atkinson Ave. L4J8C8 Thornhill, ON, Canada

Grade 2 students and friends James and Zvi decided that this year for their birthdays, instead of asking for gifts, they asked for donations to Netivot instead. This amazing duo raised $300 for our school! Kol HaKavod, we are so #NetivotProud. What a beautiful mitzvah you've done! #ThisIsGivingBack... #ThisIsNetivot See more

This afternoon, our Middle School gathered together on Zoom to begin the conversation about what happened in Washington D.C. and why it matters to us in Canada. The main points of the conversation focused around democracy. While democracy provides citizens with a say, it also allows people to hold opinions other than ours. The challenge that we face is to learn how to strongly disagree with other people and their opinions while still respecting them. A peaceful society dep...ends on this. Our students also learned the Mishna that encourages each of us to pray for the government of the land because regardless of whom we vote for, the institutions which uphold the law ultimately benefit us. We concluded by encouraging our students to become the type of people who help build a strong and respectful society. See more

Dear Netivot Community, As we get ready for Rosh HaShana, we realize that it might be different than any other. In case you don't make it to a minyan, we have prepared a Rosh HaShana at Home Guide with directions about davening at home. In addition, we added Divrei Torah from teachers and administrators at Netivot that we hope will inspire thoughtful conversation around your Yom Tov table. Wishing all of you Shana Tova!...
