MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR TOMORROW!

Thursday, June 10th at 8:30 AM

Please join us for an informal meet and greet breakfast with our new Principal, Yvette Burke, and Rabbi Noam Katz, our newly appointed Dean of Jewish Living (appointed jointly with Camp George). Rabbi Katz was a former high school English teacher, international touring musician, and volunteer with African Jews. And while you all know Yvette well, this will be a chance to get to know her in her new role.

Come out and hear their visions for the future of Leo Baeck.

Please RSVP to Debby Edberg at dedberg@leobaeck.ca by the end of the day TODAY.
