Current Affairs Jewish education in Czech Republic sees tenth anniversary
The start of the new school year saw a special anniversary on Monday: 10 years since the revival of Jewish education in Prague. The Gur Arye (Lion's Cub) Elementary School and Or Chadas (New Light) High School are the only Jewish schools in the Czech Republic, and on Monday their anniversary was celebrated by teachers, students and a number of notable guests, including Senate deputy chairman Petr Pithart. Speaking at the school, he called ten years "barely a second in Jewish history" but indicated the fifty that followed the Holocaust were "much more" since very "being or not being" were at stake.
