FULL HOUSE FOR CHEV-CAJE LECTURE WIZO Oaklands Branch recently re-launched its Ladies Day. The day, in honour of Naomi Goldberg, who passed away four years ago, was held at the home of Mushe and Issie Kirsch. The speakers gave over fascinating talks and Shelley Geffen’s delicious catering was another highlight of the event. Almost 300 people attended the latest CAJE lecture of the Enrich Your Life series – a partnership between Chev Social Services and Sydenham Shul’s CAJE. Clinical psychologist, Dr Colinde Linde, offered fascinating insights and practical suggestions on dealing with anxiety.

The Israel Centre was honoured to host Gusti Yehoshua Braverman – head of the WZO to run the Beit Ha’am Seminar. Workshop group discussions took place between representatives from various Jewish organisations and the Jewish community. The goals of the workshop were to understand the importance of dialogue among diverse groups of people and to understand that one can be critical of Israel while still standing under the banner of Zionism.
