The Calgary Yachad Hebrew School - Bringing Judaism to Life!

Welcome To Yachad!

Yachad offers a unique program. Our curriculum is designed using multi-sensory, hands-on activities, creative art projects, music and drama. The children will be learning through using their five senses, thereby the knowledge will not remain abstract.

Our sophisticated Hebrew language program will teach the Hebrew alphabet, reading and writing Hebrew words, and conversational Hebrew.

Our Judaic curriculum includes history and knowledge of the Jewish holidays, as they occur throughout the year. The children will be introduced to different parts of prayer. The history of our holy land, as well as modern day Israel will come alive at Yachad. The beauty of Shabbat, the importance of caring and loving one another, awaiting Moshiach and the mitzvah of Tzedaka (charity), are some of the important Jewish values that will be instilled at Yachad.

"I liked playing colour tag and learning about chagim by doing the things that were done years ago, like compressing olives to make oil for Chanukah."
Myles Labell, Student

"We highly recommend Yachad Hebrew School. For many years it has provided our children with a warm and caring environment while teaching Jewish values and traditions in a positive and creative manner. The wide range of subjects that are covered at Yachad Hebrew School are laying the foundation for Jewish pride and identity that will last a lifetime for our children."

"I found the schooling invaluable in providing Justin with a Jewish experience and education. Justin also enjoyed very much attending the school as it assisted in giving him a Jewish identity that is so important in a city like Calgary with a small Jewish population. I feel that if you were able to restart the school it would become an important part of the Jewish community/education facility in Calgary."
