The move from TBC to our new location has been successful. It is some way from Truro, parking is much better. Shabbat attendances and cheder attendances appear to have reduced since the move. Due to reduced attendance at Pesach, Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur as well as an increased pricing; it has become untenable for KK to hold those services there. Ron Mason passed away. Brenda Mason remains in a Care Home in St Just following a stroke. Vera Collins is quite ill. Farewell to Wendy and Jerry Jeavons who have moved to Bristol. Relationships with the Reform movement are very good with David Jacobs and Elkan Levy. Harvey was absent from the community from Feb-May. He extended thanks to the congregation for the support. As a result, more people have agreed to lead Shabbat services. Harvey extended thanks to the committee members for their support.
Cheder is down in numbers. 5 children attended regularly. We have been awarded £500 finances from the Reform movement. Each child is having bespoke lessons covering holidays, torah portion, Hebrew letters, stories. Two parents have approached Bonnie about Bar and Bat Mitzvah. Bonnie to make private arrangements and teach them on a Sunday in her home. Bonnie is going to make a library list of the cheder books. Bonnie is to set course work for the summer break.
