ISRAELI HOUSE - BAYIT ISRAELI
Israeli House was founded by the Vered Israel Cultural and Educational Program in conjunction with the Embassy of Israel to provide Israelis and all Hebrew speaking members of the community a social and cultural outlet whereby participants can sing Hebrew songs, watch Hebrew Films, listen to Hebrew guest speakers and celebrate Jewish holidays in a Hebrew environment.
Israeli House is a great place to meet other Israelis and chat in Hebrew. Our Chanukah Purim and Tu B’av parties have Israeli music and flavour. We have all the information about Israeli performers coming to Ottawa and Montreal.
Join us and the 100 Ottawa families already involved in Israeli House.
Information about events and a schedule of the Israeli House meetings and celebrations are sent out via e-mail to all members. Membership is free.

HEBREW LANGUAGE LIBRARY
The Vered Israel Cultural & Educational Program provides a collection of Israeli books and videos on a cart in the Greenberg Families Library. These items can be checked out with the librarians. All SJCC members enjoy full library privileges.
