Upcoming Events
"Escape from Egypt": Escape Room Sunday, April 14 at 1:30 pm at The Palisades Mall for 2nd-7th graders; siblings/parents welcome to join for ice cream!*
We can't wait to "escape from Egypt" with our 2nd-7th graders! We will meet at the Häagen-Dazs in the food court of the Palisades Mall at 1:30 pm, and then we'll walk over to our escape room for a 2 pm start. We'll finish up between 3-3:15 pm at the escape room.
Please sign up by WEDNESDAY, APRIL 10 so that we can confirm the age groups! Once we get a headcount, we will reach back out for payment.
*Note: If you have younger or older children, they are welcome to meet us for ice cream and then to explore other parts of the Palisades Mall with you (such as the Climb Zone or other activities). Please note that parents/adults will be responsible for buying ice cream for those not participating in the escape room.
Passover Play(ground) Time Monday, April 29 at 3 pm Playground (weather-permitting) or Kasakove
Enjoy the days of school and the end of Passover with your Beth El friends! We'll have a relaxed afternoon on the playground together for socializing for kids and adults alike! If we have bad weather, we'll move to the Kasakove with lots of toys and games for all ages.
