March 2007

 

When the Maitland Hebrew Congregational Trust was wound up in November 2004, the remaining funds in the trust were distributed to fourteen organizations, one of which was the Herzlia School Bursary fund.

 

During 2006/2007, as part of Herzlia's Renew-A-Classroom initiative, it was decided to dedicate a classroom in the name of the Maitland Hebrew Congregation.

 

At the dedication ceremony on 18 March 2007, a plaque in honor of the Maitland Hebrew Congregation was unveiled at the entrance to the Music and Technology room at Herzlia Highlands Primary School, and an attractive mezuzah was affixed to the doorpost.

 

The inscription on the plaque reads:

In honour of the

MAITLAND HEBREW CONGREGATION

"And He has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill,

ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts"

Exodus 35
