Activity Hours:

The peulot will take place once a week on Sundays between 4:00-5:55 PM at the SJJCC in Roslyn, unless otherwise stated. Please arrive a few minutes before the start of the Peula and pick up your children on time at the end of the peula.

 

Meeting and Pick Up Location: 

Upon arrival at the peula the chanichim are asked to come to the library. At the end of the Peula, the parents are asked to pick up the chanichim from the lobby of the JCC

When dropping off  and/or  picking up, please be careful not to interfere with the day-to-day operations of the JCC. The vehicles must be parked and the chanichim be picked up in person. Do not park in double parking and do not leave driverless vehicles in the square before the main entrance. Please obey the instructions of the parents on duty who will stand outside and direct the traffic. Your cooperation is very important

Attendance in Peulot:

The presence of the chanichim in the peulot is very important in order to maintain a sequence of activities and maintain the motivation of the chanichim and the group. In addition, the counselors invest a lot of time and thought in preparing the peulot so that the chanichim can have an interesting and fun activity. Missing peulot  impairs the quality of the activities. If the chanich is unable to attend the peula, please notify the group's counselor or the Merakez Shevet as soon as possible, please do not report absences in the class WhatsApp group.

​

Parent attendance:

The Scouts is a youth movement for all that it entails, including placing the responsibility on the youth counselors and developing independence among the chanichim. Therefore, it is strictly forbidden for parents to enter into activities unless specifically approved. If there is a difficulty for the child, please contact the Madrich (Counselor) or Merakzim ahead of time.

​

Tradiness:

Please try not to be late for the Peulot as it is very detrimental to the activity and makes it difficult for the counselors and the whole group to be focused on the Peula. A late Chanich will be asked to wait outside the activity room until the start of the next part of the activity so as not to disturb the whole group

Please bring the children a few minutes before the start of the operation

Early departure:

If there is a chanich who needs to leave the peula early - please inform the group's supervisor/counselors or the Merakez Shevet in advance and the chanich will be waiting for you in the lobby. Parents will not be allowed to enter the peula and take their child.

Khaki: 

As always there will be a strict adherence for Chanichim to be dressed in full khaki (khaki shirt, khaki shorts and tie). A Chanich without a khaki will not be able to participate in the activities and will have to call his parents who will come to pick him up or bring him a khaki outfit.

For NEW Chanichim the khaki requirement is waived for their first three pe'ulot, however starting with the fourth peula they too will be asked be in full khaki

During special ceremonies (Holidays, Yom HaZikaron, Yom Ha'Shoah, etc), the Chanichim are asked to arrive in a festive khaki - a white collared shirt, a khaki pants and an aniva. The counselors will inform the chanichim when a festive khaki is needed, and emails and text messages will also be sent to the parents.

 

Discipline:

Parents and Chanichim are asked to read and follow the Code of Conduct of the Shevet Gefen, as well as the Code of Conduct of the HanHagat TZabar. Please emphasize to the Chanichim the importance of listening to the counselors and maintaining discipline in the group. Disruptions prevent the counselors from performing the activities they worked on and make it difficult for the whole group. Only cooperation on the part of the Chanichim and parents will ensure all the children of the Shevet have a successful and enjoyable year of activity

Using mobile phones:

Mobile phones will not be allowed during the peulot. The Chanichim are asked not to bring phones into peula at all or they will be asked to place the phones in a dedicated box at the beginning of the peula and pick them up at the end of the activity. Please emphasize to the Chanichim the issue of not using the phones during the peulot. It distracts them and prevents active and proper participation in the peula

WhatsApp groups:

The grade group WhatsApp groups are intended to convey messages regarding Tzofim only. Please avoid posting messages on other topics so as not to create a burden on the group. If you have individual questions - you can contact the group's counselor or Rashgad in private

In addition, please refrain from posting messages that are not about the Tzofim. If you think there is an important issue that should be brought to the attention of the parents, please send a message in detail to the Merakez Shevet and he/she will make sure to forward it to the Shevet's leadership for approval.

The purpose of this policy is to ensure that the group does not become a general bulletin board and becomes a nuisance in terms of the number of messages in it, thus maintaining the main interest and activity of the parent group.

Instructions

If there are any issues or comments regarding the counselors - please contact the Shevet's Merakez Boger in private. We want to preserve the dignity of the counselors and remember that in the end - they too are children! Please do not contact the counselors directly but only through the Merakez or the Rosh Shevet/ treasurer of the Shevet for these matters.
