Update 121 A little help goes a long way

One Day Sung by Matisyahu

“Sometimes in my tears I drown

But I never let it get me down

So when negativity surrounds

I know someday, it'll all turn around...” Written by Bruno Mars / Philip Lawrence / Ari Levine / Matthew Miller

And the video showing acts of kindness. A beautiful video can be used in many lessons in your classrooms about passing it forward or showing kindness.

This was not an easy week as we remembered the 7th of October and the war continues. I thought in today’s broadcast I “will try turn it all around” at least for me and share this amazing recording of One Day with a group of enthusiastic South African Zionists, both Jewish and not Jewish, came together as one to sing a song of hope. It's time for our hostages to come home

Together they expressed their love for Israel and their hope for peace.

“WE PRAY” - Coldplay

Yitzhak Rabin School in Ashdod took the “Coldplay” song “We Pray” and altered the words a little. They then produced this amazing video - This I want to share because I believe it is fantastic and well done to the school.

This broadcast reaches nearly 2000 teachers around the country so if you want to share what your school is doing in English feel free to share and we will try and show off your school here.

This is a school in South Africa called King David Linksfield and here they are singing Hurricane. When I was there and I saw them practicing it was quite surreal that a Jewish school overseas would be singing the song by Eden Golan. I literally have goosebumps listening.
