Meah Hebrew & Religion School
Our enrolment is ongoing. If you'd like to enrol your student and don't yet have an account in our system, please email info@nste.org.au or call the office at (02) 9419 7011 so that we can set up an account for you and your child (include their name and birthday).

We are excited that you're interested in joining our Family of Families at Meah! Our K-6 classes meet on Sundays from 9:00am to 12:00pm, with lots of breaks in between. The school is called Meah, meaning 100 in Hebrew, because our K-6 students enjoy approximately 100/Meah hours of class together throughout the year. See our schedule, fees, and fees policy for 2025 here.
Our Meah teaching team is passionate about creating an environment for our students that will nurture and encourage them to strive for their personal best, develop their interpersonal skills, have fun, and build friendships which we hope will last a lifetime. Since we are a small school, the curricula is adapted each year to meet the needs of the students enroled. It focuses on building the students' Hebrew skills and their comfort with the prayer service, deepening their understanding of Jewish Holidays, studying the values underlying our foundational stories in the Torah, growing their understanding of and pride as Progressive Jews, expanding their appreciation of the modern state of Israel, and stoking their curiosity for further exploration.
We currently have three classes. One class with Morah Belinda in K-2. Another group with Morah Beulah in Y3-5, and a third group with Rabbi Moshe in Y6. The levels are fluid, depending on the number of students in each grade and class dynamics. Students will be placed according to age as well as where they're most likely to feel most comfortable and thrive. We assess their Hebrew on a regular basis so that by the end of their time with us they can easily and comfortably read the Sidddur/Prayer Book and Parshah/ Torah Portion by the time they reach Year 7 with Rabbi Nicole and start preparing for their B'Mizvah.
In addition to the Sunday classes, our year 5 and 6 students are encouraged to attend midweek classes, which are designed to complement the Sunday Hebrew program as the children approach their bar and bat mitzvah year.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which our synagogue stands, the land of the Gamaragal people. Many of us and our forebears have come from other lands and found our spirit of kinship with Indigenous Australians whose connection with this land preceded ours, and we recognise that connection as sacred and enduring. May we walk together toward a future of justice and healing.
