After-School Activities
HaBonim
Heilicher HaBonim offers fun, safe, enriching, onsite activities for K-6 students after school. Students will have snacks, active play in the gym or playground, and free choice activities including art projects, games, and ga-ga. Students in grades 3-6 will also have quiet, staff-monitored homework time each afternoon.
In addition to HaBonim, there are loads of after-school activities such as Chess, Robotics, and Athletics. Each of these programs coordinates with HaBonim to provide seamless transitions for students who need to move from one program to another.

With emphasis on teamwork and healthy relationships, this program demonstrates how girls can have a positive impact on the world through a community impact project. Physical activity is woven into the program to inspire an appreciation for fitness and healthy habits. The girls also learn life skills including treating others with care, practicing gratitude, and managing emotions. The session finishes with a celebratory, non-competitive Girls on the Run 5K event. Maximum 20 girls.
