The Akiva grade 3 classes sang this year at the Toy Tea event held at Ogilvy’s on the fifth floor – Tudor Hall – on Wednesday, December 3rd. The children sang Chanukah songs in English, French and Hebrew in a wonderful opportunity to share with our greater community. There were 14 Montreal area school choirs in total performing. (Akiva School was the only Jewish day school.) All attendees brought new, unwrapped toys which the 2014 Toy Tea event will be distributing to children living in 31 shelters for domestic abuse and violence, as well as to children at The Welcome Hall Mission, The Montreal Diet Dispensary, Tyndale St. Georges Parish, St. Willibrord’s Parish, La Rue des Femmes.
