GRADE EIGHT
THE REFLECTION PROJECT
Our soon-to-be graduates showcase their
experience at RHA. The personal results are
truly meaningful. Each student creates a still-life
composition, which responds to the questions:
• What are the meaningful artifacts from my
time at RHA?
• What best reflects my journey and shapes my
identity as a Jew, RHA student and global citizen?
TIKKUN OLAM —
REPAIRING THE WORLD
Our Middle School students play a hands-on role with
our community food drives and partner with local food
banks. Students learn about the impact of food insecurity
on individuals and families and build a campaign to bring
awareness to encourage their peers to support such
important causes. Food is collected, sorted and packed
as part of their commitment to Tikkun Olam.
TOY TIME
Students are tasked to build toys that work on hydraulics
and pneumatics and then present their innovation to
"buyers" from an international toy company. Students
get to design some amazing interactive toys and develop
comprehensive real-world marketing.
NATIONAL BIBLE CONTEST
Open to students from Grades 6 to 8, the Canadian
National Bible Contest — Chidon Canada — is
a competition that invites students to immerse
themselves in the Tanakh. To prepare, students learn
together with our expert faculty members. Our track
record is extraordinary with most of our students
consistently advancing to Nationals and placing
among the top finishers.
