Bi-lingual elementary school HUMAN FIRST

"At the heart of every religion resides love, but love has no religion"

Jalal a-Din Rumi

In september 2023, after 14 years of educational activity, we founded our first elementary school system in order to give our kindergarten children a chance to continue their education according to our values and beliefs.

Human First Elementary School stands on the bridge between:

The various spiritual beliefs - Islam, Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, secularism and more, recognize their commonality and a deep sense of reverence for the uniqueness of each of them
Anthroposophy - the basis of Waldorf's education
Sustainability and the love for nature, the reason that connects the human being to the being of the world.
Educating the future generation in Israel.

2026-2027

"Without the connection to the Spirit, we believe, we will not be able to uphold the concept of human dignity. We will also lose a certain type of our politics, the politics of the common good. We will find that we are unable to maintain a common morality - and morality must be shared if we want it to do what it has always done - Unite us in communities of shared principles and values."

Our Educational Music Center

In collaboration with the East–West Orchestra and conductor Tom Cohen

The new music education program at our school is officially underway!

The program offers weekly lessons led by top musicians specializing in traditional instruments such as the qanun, oud, and darbuka.

Through rhythm and melody, the children explore the connection between East and West and enjoy a professional, inclusive, and accessible space for learning, creating, and musical exploration.

At the end of the year, each group will perform the pieces they have practiced throughout the year.
