Out Of School Hours Care
“Yeshivah - Beth Rivkah Cares” is a convenient outside-of-school care program designed for primary school-aged children.
Yeshivah - Beth Rivkah Cares provides a caring and inclusive environment, where children can grow, learn, and develop their individuality, all while upholding the principles of family, sustainability, and legal compliance.
It is currently offered to the students on our Beth Rivkah Primary campus. For further details please contact brp@ybr.vic.edu.au.
The program is built on several core principles:
1. All children have the right to receive high-quality care in an environment that prioritises warmth, safety, and security.
2. To foster a passion for Judaism inspired by Chabad Chassidus.
3. Individuality and Growth: Yeshivah - Beth Rivkah Cares fosters an atmosphere that respects each child's individuality and focuses on nurturing their physical, intellectual, and emotional growth.
4. The program values each child as a capable and confident learner.
5. There is a strong emphasis on encouraging creativity, honest self-expression, and freedom of choice among the children. This helps them become more self-aware, accepting of themselves, and tolerant of others and their surroundings.
6. Learning is facilitated through both formal and informal activities, with children provided with abundant materials, equipment, and meaningful instruction. This approach allows children to explore, experiment, and experience the world at their own pace.
