Club activities
Our Jewish center carries out club activities. Along with traditional events for community members, there are children's and youth clubs.
AJT JUNIOR is a Sunday children's club for so-called juniors – children aged 5-12.
In our club, in a light, playful way, children take their first steps into the world of Jewish tradition, and in a relaxed atmosphere, they gain Jewish knowledge (this is how we combine the concepts of holidays, traditions with their meanings and significance), so that in the future they can freely feel like part of the community.
AJT JUNIOR gives children the opportunity to:
- Zdemonstrate your talents and skills by participating in regular creative workshops and off-site events
- Zdevelop your athletic and intellectual abilities in exciting games and activities
- Zfind true friends among peers in the community
Keren team is a modern youth club that promotes socialization of teenagers and young people. In our club there is an opportunity to learn something new, develop yourself and share knowledge with others.
In the Keren team, teenagers and young people have the opportunity to acquire new skills and grow in the direction that is interesting to them, share their knowledge and abilities with others. Moreover, each member of the club has the opportunity to open up, demonstrate their leadership qualities, lead a project that is close to them in theme and spirit.
- ZAccess to education and new skills
- ZUseful acquaintances
- ZParticipation in projects and trips
- ZParticipation in seminars, festivals and volunteer events
The Ajt JUNIOR children's club held an interactive Seder. It was structured in several stages so that each child could not only hear but also experience the story. The children recalled the events of the Exodus, discussed the 10 plagues of Egypt, and enthusiastically performed short costumed skits, assuming the roles of Moses, Pharaoh, and the Jewish people. The event was lively and dynamic: participants actively participated in relay races, completed tasks, played, and learned through movement and interaction. The celebration culminated in a real Seder at the table—with ke'ara, four glasses of grape juice, and all the traditional paraphernalia. This moment united everyone, creating a special sense of belonging to tradition. We believe that such events help children not just learn about history, but feel it, live it, and incorporate it into their lives. After all, it is through such moments that the living connection between generations is passed on and interest in the culture and traditions of their people is maintained. #jdc #AJTTIR #jewishtradition #passover
✨ The AJT Junior children's club held a meeting dedicated to preparations for one of the most important holidays of the Jewish calendar—Passover. 🕊️ The children recalled the story of the Exodus, talked about the meaning and traditions of the holiday, discussed its main attributes, and how Passover is celebrated in families.👨👩👦👦 🎨 The creative part continued: the participants decorated festive matzo napkins. The children let their imagination run wild. As a result, each work turned out to be special—with its own character and mood, but all of them are united by diligence and love for the traditions of their people.❤️✡️ #jdc #ajttir #passover #jewishtradition
🎭A sweet and fragrant master class dedicated to the upcoming holiday of Purim was held at the AJT Junior children's club! Under the watchful eye of an experienced volunteer cook from the community, the children prepared homantashen (Oman's Ears, Hamantashen)—a traditional triangular Purim treat. 🎊 The work was in full swing! Some painstakingly rolled out the dough, while others carefully arranged the fragrant fillings—poppy seed and nut jam. Laughter, concentration, and anticipation of the result reigned in the kitchen. The result was a whole table of festive baked goods, filled with children's love, diligence, and the warmth of little hands. 🎭And at the end—the best part: tasting their own culinary masterpieces and a fun photo shoot! Everyone had a delicious meal and a Purim-like joy! 🎉✨ #jdc #AJTTIR #purim #omentashen
The AJT Junior Children's Club held a challenging but important meeting dedicated to Holocaust Remembrance Day. We discussed a complex topic, trying to explain it in understandable terms. Together, we read a story, discussed it, and talked about the importance of remembering the past and striving for peace. Passing on history to the younger generation is a priority for our community, and such meetings are very important for our young participants. They help children understand the importance of remembrance, friendship, and respect for others. They help them remember so that the tragedies of the past will never be repeated! #JDC #AJTTIR #weremember
Today, a warm and truly unifying meeting took place at Hesed.💙 Representatives of three clubs gathered around one table: the AJT Juniors, the AJT Teens, and the adult members of the Mishpacha Family Club. Three generations and one common cause – decorating Hanukkah gingerbread.🍪 🎁Baked with love by our volunteers, these gingerbread cookies will become part of the holiday gifts for the elderly and lonely members of the community. Every stroke of icing, every bright detail is a small message of warmth, attention, and support. 🕎During Hanukkah, it is especially important to spread light – and today it manifested itself in the most important things: the living connection between generations, in respect, care, and the desire to do a good deed together. ✡️Today's meeting was a reminder that we are one family, and our light becomes brighter when we light it for each other. #JDC #AJTTIR #ajt #mishpacha #hanukka
💫The children of our AJT Junior club eagerly entered the new Jewish month of Kislev. ✔️The children learned that this month is filled with symbols of light, hope, and miracles, discussed its characteristics, and learned about its zodiac sign. ✔️They learned that one of the main symbols of Kislev is the bow—in Hebrew, "keset," which can mean not only a weapon but also a rainbow. According to Jewish tradition, the first rainbow in the sky appeared in Kislev, when God made a covenant with Noah after the Flood. 🌈 ✔️At the end of our meeting, the children created a wonderful craft—a rainbow—as a symbol of light and good energy, with which they welcome the month of Kislev and all that it brings. ✡️May this month bring us inspiration, warmth, and small miracles. #ajt #AJTTIR #jewishtradition #kislev
💫Today, our Jewish Children's Club held another exciting meeting! 🦂The children took part in a creative workshop, assembling a 3D model of a Scorpio—the symbol of the month of Cheshvan. 🧐The children faced a challenging task: a complex structure, numerous small parts, and the need for precision. But our young crafters demonstrated maximum patience, focus, and imagination. 🦂In the end, each of them created their own unique Scorpio—three-dimensional and absolutely special. The atmosphere was vibrant and inspiring. And after such painstaking, exciting work, the children will definitely remember for a long time which zodiac sign corresponds to the month of Marcheshvan! We are proud of our crafters! 💙 https://vox.jct.md/master-klass-po-3d-skorpionu-v-chest-kheshvana #JDC #AJTTIR #jewish #heshvan
