In a year when we are unable to travel to Israel, Tali brought Israel to Perth for her Bat mitzvah, with dancing andÌýruachÌýnear the ‘Kotel’ before candle-lighting for Shabbat. Tali’sÌýDvarÌýTorah focused on connections and freedom, two topics close to her heart given her strong connection to friends and family. She said the best part of her celebration was seeing her cousins from Melbourne!Ìý

ÌýTali already knows that she wants to be a VET when she grows up and has successfully convinced her parents to grow their already large menagerie. Her week is full of dancing, netball and of courseÌýschool work. Tali is enjoying HASS with MrÌýRastonÌýand says that she is lucky to have a ‘family at home, and another Carmel family at school’.Ìý

Well, we LOVE having you in our family, Tali! Mazal Tov.Ìý
