A blessed Yom Kippur

Yom Kippur translates to ‘Day of Atonement’ and is considered to be the most important day in the Jewish calendar. It falls 10 days after Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year, and focuses on setting intentions for the year ahead, as well as repenting for the sins of the year before. It is commemorated with a 25-hour-long fast.  

The day begins at sunset on Sunday 24 September and is observed until nightfall on Monday 25 September.  

Gmar Chatima Tova to all of our students, colleagues, alumni and friends who are observing.
