Tzedakah

Life at Immanuel College is not just about the 8.30 to 4.05 school day, the core curriculum subjects and public examinations. Many of the important goals of an Immanuel education are achieved beyond the classroom. Pupils develop stronger and more confident characters and grow into compassionate and responsible adults by helping others both within and outside the school community.

Each year pupils from throughout the school form a committee to organise fundraising events for charity. The Committee is called Shevat Achim and they nominate the diverse charities which benefit from their efforts.

This term’s nominated charities are:

Medikidz
Zaka

The Sixth Form Shevet Achim captains this year are: Shoshana Goldstein, Benjamin Winton, Daniel Dangoor and Daniel Granditer.
