In grades 6-8, students are able to
participate in Canada's Bible Contest,
a competition that invites students to
immerse themselves in the Tanakh. Each
year, RHA sends about 15 eager students
to Regionals. Our track record is pristine:
100% of our students consistently advance
to Nationals, where they are always
among the top finishers. RHA grad
Zoe Zusman took first place in her time at
RHA.

Students are challenged to capture
movement in sculpture. First they
study examples of sculpture – from
classical Greek to abstract to surreal.
Then they create a wire figure based
on proportions of the human body
to test the movements they want to
reproduce. And finally, they create
three-dimensional figures.
Movement
sculpturing
builds not just
aesthetic ability;
students also
apply physics,
design thinking,
problem solving
and innovation.
