Thank you SO MUCH to Rabbi Zvi, our children were delighted to meet him and really enjoyed learning so much about Judaism. We found everything Rabbi Zvi said very informative and interesting.

Despite the lesson being online it was interactive and the Rabbi had a variety of visual objects to support and engage learners.
- Nafees Aslam, Head of Religious Education http://www.edengirlsslough.com/ He has a lovely energy and good story teller. Rabi Zvi was able to catch the attention of our younger students who can be very fidgety.
It was perfectly pitched to all our year groups. https://gurukula.org.uk/ Rabbi Zvi was really engaging and the children really enjoyed it. The story he told and getting them to join in was lovely. It was also great when he showed the children different objects which are important in the Jewish religion.
Thank you - the children really learnt a lot. - Mrs Charlotte Whittle, Head Teacher http://www.stoke-row-school.co.uk/ "It was really great talking and listening to someone who knew so much about Rosh Hashanah and It was fun seeing all of the different things that he had with him too!"
- Year 6 student https://www.liden-pri.swindon.sch.uk/ The year 5 children love meeting him each year and learning about Judaism. They are captivated by his storytelling and wonderful manner.
https://www.south-farnham.surrey.sch.uk/ Rabbi Zvi was amazing and the children and staff were all so engaged.
https://www.stedmundsschool.co.uk/ The children really enjoyed working with the objects and hearing about how they are all used.
https://www.mountcarmel.ealing.sch.uk/ Thank you for the inspiring talk you gave the children last week in St.Peter's School. I picked my daughter up and her friend after school, who came for a playdate, and they were chattering away very happily about what they had learnt - some even I didn't know about which they thought was fun! (Alison, parent)
Great interaction with the children, they were engaged and came away with a better understanding of Judaism and other religions including Islam and Christianity.
Enjoyed how the Rabbi was encouraging the children to think deeper about why there are particular religious practices… asking the children many why questions. The children thoroughly enjoyed the session. http://etonend.org/ Rabbi Zvi is a great story teller! The assembly was wonderful and the message from the story was one all the children could relate to. Our KS2 children really enjoyed the stories he told in the workshops and we felt they learnt a lot from meeting Rabbi Zvi. (Wendy Soar, RE subject leader)
http://www.longmarston.herts.sch.uk/ The Rabbi engaged the children with his knowledge. The children enjoyed having things to look at and wear. This made the session very hands-on. The children most certainly learnt a lot about Judaism. (Leanne Harris, HeadTeacher)
http://www.stannes-chertsey.surrey.sch.uk/ Rabbi Zvi provided a wonderful introduction to Judaism especially as we do not have any Jewish children in our school. His story telling skills captivated the children and staff and children all learnt such a lot. I really appreciated his respectful attitude towards other religions. (Brenda Rolfe, class teacher)
http://www.westernhouse.academy/ The girls thoroughly enjoyed your thought-provoking assembly, and workshops on Shabbat and Passover. (Aoife Jones, class teacher)
http://www.themaristschools.com/ Rabbi Zvi was very engaging and there was so much content. The children really enjoyed the session and were fully engaged the whole time. They all were very positive about the experience. (Suzanne Collett, RE coordinator)
http://www.woodenhill.bracknell-forest.sch.uk/ he talks are so engaging and he really holds the children's interest. The interactive elements keep the children engaged. (Felicity Blockley, Assistant Headteacher)
https://uffingtonschool.co.uk/ Rabbi Zvi kept the children very engaged. They remembered much information even after the half term break. We liked how he talked to the children of different faiths and made them proud of their religion and beliefs. This fitted very well with our work on anti-bullying which had the theme :All Different All Equal. (Rosalind Somerville, RE coordinator)
http://springfieldprimary.org/westberks/primary/springfield All the children found the interactive and fun workshop thoroughly engaging and informative. It has certainly enhanced our teaching of Judaism enormously.
(Mandy Cook, RE Co-ordinator) http://marlboroughstmarys.wilts.sch.uk/ The students had a really good time and I was amazed how much of the information they had taken in when I had a lesson with them the next day. They enjoyed the stories and most of all enjoyed the practical involvement.
Katherine Matsuya, Head of Religious Studies http://www.luckleyhouseschool.org/ “I really enjoyed the Rabbi visiting our class. The best bit was hearing the stories he told.” (Jessica, Squirrel Class)
http://www.tavistockinfants.co.uk Just before half-term, Year 8 and 7 students had the opportunity to listen to a talk given by Rabbi Zvi Solomons from the Jewish Community of Berkshire. The Rabbi invited students into his ‘mock’ Synagogue and, in accordance to Jewish tradition, sat the boys (all wearing yamulke skull caps) and girls on different sides. Rabbi Zvi explored the many comparisons between Jewish culture and other ways of life, culminating in him telling the story of Purim. Purim is a festival that has many similarities with Christmas – families get together, a feast is devoured, the adults dress up in interesting outfits and are permitted to enjoy a drink or two! It was a pleasure to welcome Rabbi Zvi and we look forward to seeing him again. https://www.epschool.org/
Thank you so much for the wonderful visit today. All of the children were completely captivated by the sessions and the teachers both reported back how wonderfully inclusive the teaching was. Thanks you!
http://www.thameside.oxon.sch.uk/ I just wanted to thank you for the two fantastic sessions on Shabbat and Passover that you led at my school. The children were really interested and enjoyed taking part in the meals – tasting the food and drink. It was a real success and it was really great the way that you welcomed them to your dining table – they were hooked straight away! Lots of lovely stories told too.
