Ethics Squad
Date: 07 June
Zoom screen shot of a Ethics Squad session on the 07 June. We had a panel of six Woodside Park members who are in their first or second year’s at University. They gave insights on different aspects of University life (living arrangements; Jewish scene; social life etc.) and answered questions from a group of students in year 12 for whom I have been doing Ethics Squad for the past 18 months. This was very important for these students as they will not have a chance to visit universities for open days.
This is the third zoom session we have held during lockdown.
We have had other sessions on:
-
the Jewish response to Covid-19 and how to cope with remote learning and
-
also an interactive quiz.
About the Ethics Squad
Woodside Park Synagogue Squads is a squad for all year 12 students. Ethics Squad will feature inspirational discussions on current affairs subjects relevant to youth today from a Jewish perspective. Led by Jonathan Cantor, this promises to be a thought provoking and fun series.
