Union of Jewish Students
Here at the Union of Jewish Students we are so excited to share with you our new ‘Bridging the Gap’ Sixth Form program and ask if you can share it with all your members of the right age group.
The program is designed to help sixth formers in both year 12 and 13 from Jewish and Non-Jewish school to succeed in navigating the transition between school and university. It will be made up of 6 in person sessions between February and March covering topics Jewish Life on campus, budgeting at uni, tackling antisemitism on campus, safety at uni, how we talk about Israel and looking after our mental and physical health. It will also be a great chance to socialise with other 6th formers from a range of different schools.
If you feel session held at your synagogue just for your members would be better please do let us know and we can work with you to arrange this.
Sixth formers can sign up by clicking here and completing the form.
If you would like any more information or have any questions please do not hesitate to get in contact with Talia, our team member responsible for UJSix taliah.h@ujs.org.uk
