A successful firm term is being marked at Gan Menachem, the Lubavitch nursery in North West London, at its new premises and under its new administration.
Founded over 10 years ago by Mrs. Bassie Itzinger, a team of dedicated members of the community stepped in to direct the Gan and to move it forward with the hope of expanding its numbers and classes.
The hard work, led by Mrs. Dina Toron and Mrs. Chana Sufrin, with their dedicated team of teachers, has seen the Gan grow, with this second term in January starting with 56 children.
A member of staff, who has worked for the Gan for a number of years, commented on the positive atmosphere created by the new administration.
“We can all clearly see the benefits of the hard work put in by the head teacher Mrs. Miriam Lieberman, the administrators and all the teachers,” says a member of the staff. “It has changed the direction of the Gan.”
At its new location, the nursery offers a larger play area for the children. Extensive renovations have make it even more comfortable for their use.
Rabbi Menachem Junik, Rov of Congregation Beis Gavriel Lubavitch, is on hand to help out with any questions the staff might have, and visits the school on Lubavitch holidays, such as Yud Tes Kislev, to lead Farbrengens in the classrooms.
Finance and technical details have also not been neglected. A new board of directors was created to ensure a smooth running of the financial department. It includes David Abramson, Mendy Freundlich, Yechiel Wilhelm and Nuchi Vogel.
Constant contact with parents has proven to be vital tool in creating a friendly atmosphere where parents feel they can direct any questions or problems to any member of the board.
Recently, the school was honoured with a visit by Rabbi Moshe Kotlarsky, Chairman of the International Kinus Hashluchim convention and Vice Chairman of Merkos L’inyonei Chinuch, who met with the staff and toured the school, leaving impressed about future prospects.
Last week, the school also paired up with the Nancy Reuben School to enjoy a private concert by children’s favorite Uncle Moishy, where the kids had a fantastic time, clapping and dancing along to the popular songs and show.

Experts tell us that 90% of all brain development occurs by the age of five. If we don’t begin thinking about education in the early years, our children are at risk of falling behind by the time they start school.
