Project Y: A night with Y

What do you get when you put a red carpet, 120 chanichim and 60 madrichim in a hall? One glamorous opening night for Project Y! The night was filled with excitement, discussions, cameras and a lot of fun. This event was only a taste of things to come, and left everyone wanting more. The next Project Y event will take place on Sunday the 1st of April, so stay tuned!

PPBBQ

On Thursday the 5th of April Bnei Akiva Melbourne will be hosting its annual Pre Pesach Barbeque. As many houses will already be Kosher Le'Pesach, come to Mizrachi from 5:30-8:30pm for your last bit of chametz!

Lost and Found

After our last summer camp, unfortunately one senior chanich came home with someone else's sleeping bag. The one they have is blue, unlike the one they own, which is a new Kathmandu sleeping bag. If anyone accidentally took the wrong sleeping bag home, please reply to this email to be put in contact with the family to switch sleeping bags. Thanks!

Welcome to Efrat Metzler

We would like to once again welcome Efrat Metzler, our new temporary Bnei Akiva Shlicha!

Efrat has been with us for not even two weeks, and already she has been working tirelessly, and her guidance and assistance has been incredibly valuable.

We are sure that she will become an integral part of Bnei in 2012, and she looks forward to meeting everyone!

Davidi Perl in Public Office

Bnei Akiva Melbourne would like to extend our Mazal Tov to Davidi Perl, who has recently been elected head of the Gush Etzion regional authority.

Davidi and Shlomit Perl finished their stint as Bnei Akiva Shlichim in Melbourne just over 4 years ago, and have since lived in Alon Shvut, very close to Yeshivat Har Etzion where many of our MTA boys learn.

We all fondly remember the wonderful time they spent here and how much they contributed to Bnei Akiva Melbourne, and we wish Davidi much Hatzlacha with his new role!

An Exciting Announcement! New Bnei Akiva Shlicha!

bneiakiv — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 19:39:06 +0000

Bnei Akiva Melbourne

New Bnei Akiva Shlicha!

It is with great please that we announce the addition of Efrat Metzler to our Bnei Team for 2012!

Efrat has graciously agreed to take up the role of temporary Shlicha until a more long-term family is found from Israel.

Efrat lives and breathes Bnei

She grew up attending Bnei Akiva in Israel, was a Madricha, and then a Komunarit (the equivalent of Merakezet) during her Sherut Leumi national service. After that, she was sent on Shlichut as a Sherut Girl in Stockholm, Sweden, where she was also heavily involved in Bnei. There, she met her future husband, and he subsequently made Aliyah. They were married in Israel, and went on another Shlichut back to Sweden where they worked for 3 years in Bnei Akiva in Scandinavia. They returned to Israel and had four lovely children. Her husband David Metzler is now a shaliach for UIA here in Melbourne, and Efrat has generously agreed to join us in Bnei and put her considerable passion and experience at our disposal.

Efrat is also a wonderfully nice person, and is really looking forward to working with us to make Bnei 2012 a terrific year!
