Rabbi Zvi Solomons stepped out of Reading this week to visit Woodlands Primary School in Maidenhead. The Rabbi of the Jewish Community of Berkshire (JCoB) is active in reaching out through the local schools to the local Jewish population, and finds several Jewish students wherever he goes. "You would be astonished how often there is an Israeli family or a hidden Jewish family in a local primary school community. We are to be found everywhere!" explained the JCoB rabbi. Rabbi Zvi offers a classroom Synagogue experience which is tailored to the Religious Education syllabus. "Rabbi Zvi and I are both experienced members of the local SACREs - RE committees - in the area," commented Rebbetzin Shira, "and there is a huge demand for authentic RE provisioning the area. We see it as an opportunity to support our local communal activities and to reach out to the local community, while discovering more Jews in the area. " More details on Rabbi Zvi's outreach and communal work an be found on www.JCoB.org or by phoning 07828742282.

Rabbi Zvi is doing a good job in interacting with other Jewish. I know that there a lot of Jews that are not "practicing" anymore. They are Jews by name and not by action. If the Jews would be able to gather once in awhile and re-learn their activities and beliefs, then the next generation would know about their religion. As a university student, I learned the different religions in the world. And I learned a lot from all of them.
