Our visit to the Sinai Academy

Last week we visited the Sinai Academy in Bloubergrant.It was an amazing experience. The Rabbi was very kind and he whore a Kippah and the boys had to as well. Every time they walked into a room there would be a mezuzah on the door and you had to kiss your two fingers and then touch the mezuzah. Then they told us how Shabbat works and the kids that were  telling us talked in Hebrew it was really cool. After they told us how Shabbat works we ate the challah bread it was delicious and we also had the grape juice that was also nice. When we were in the synagogue the Rabbi blew the ram’s horn it was really loud.He said that Mount Sinai and the Ark of the Covenant everyone was surprised well I was.
