I’m 17 and in matric at Camps Bay High School. I have attended Marais Road Shul since I was a baby. Having grown up in the children’s service, I am now able to give back as a children’s service madricha. I love working with kids. I am qualified Level 3 first aider. I'm friendly, kind, & eager to learn more about Judaism.
A Bar Mitzvah is one of life’s big milestones! At Marais Road Shul, we provide a fun-filled and meaningful framework to prepare our boys for their big day and beyond. As they begin their journey into Jewish adulthood, we guide them and equip them with the tools to participate in and integrate into the community, enabling them to continue developing their own Yiddishkeit.
The Barmi Club is our exciting learning and experiential programme for boys and dads celebrating their Bar Mitzvah at Marais Road Shul. It includes everything from laying tefillin to exploring community responsibility. The programme offers hands-on experiences with a variety of communal organisations, ranging from chesed initiatives to areas of religious practice. Each Barmi boy also has private sessions with Rabbi Hecht in the weeks leading up to his Bar Mitzvah.
Our Bat Mitzvah Club offers a meaningful and engaging journey as girls explore inspiring women in the Torah and the lessons they bring to our lives. Through interactive learning, hands-on activities, and creative experiences, each session is both enriching and enjoyable, with highlights including challah bakes, flower arranging, a CSO self-defence workshop, and guest speakers.
Girls are also encouraged to celebrate their Bat Mitzvah in a way that is meaningful to them. Rebbetzin Chani is happy to guide each family in choosing the right option, whether a candle-lighting ceremony, a Shabbat day Dvar Torah, or a Havdalah ceremony.
The programme culminates in our annual Bnot Mitzvah Ceremony, a joyful celebration where family and friends gather to mark the girls’ growth and learning.
