What's been happening

Hi all,
It's been a while- that tends to happen and it sucks a lot and sorry.

We've done a lot recently. We're on Hineni Seminar at the moment in Jerusalem where we do classes, excursions and volunteering with a whole lot of different teachers. It's intense but great.

During that, a few Shnatties took the initiative to run the first ever 'Machane Shnat' (camp shnat). Fitting In with our classes in the day, we also ran programs for each other at night on different things we felt needed to be brought up, had a lot of fun, had a camp song, Shabbat together and of course 'the rosh needs a wash' (put together by grunners, and for legal reasons we can't say what was in the mixture). Massive thanks to Sefi and Ash who were the Roshim and put it all together from scratch. They really took the initiative and it really got us all switched on and thinking about things.

As part of it, we had Nir Mock AGM where we discussed different things we wanted to bring back to the movement including a massive discussion about social justice, boundaries of political views and a huge range of other topics which will hopefully be discussed further when we get back home.

It's been really sad saying goodbye to all our friends from other movements and programs which have been finishing up recently. We're one of the last to finish and so have been missing their presence a lot.

Miss you all a lot and know that we're safe- the situation has calmed down and everything is back to normal. See you soon!

Nir
