Year 2 bubble:
We learnt a lot about the festival of Purim and listened to the story of Queen Esther:
Mylo told us that in the synagogue the read the story of Queen Esther. When Hamans name is mentioned people stamp their feet, boo and rattle instruments.
Isaac told us how the Jewish people dress up in Hamans head dress – yellow and red.
Jay said they eat biscuits shaped as triangles to symbolise Haman’s head dress. They put icing or jam on them.
Eva was able to tell us that they Jewish give gifts and money to charity to celebrate the festival.
I have found a couple more Jewish festivals and the date when they are hold
1. Hanukkah- This is a Festival of Lights. It is held in November or
2. Bar Mitzvah -This is the celebration of a boys 13th birthday or a girls 12th birthday.
These are celebrations that I found

During the festival of Purim,
People celebrate freedom of religion and faith.
