S.E.M. Torah is a series of brief divrei Torah delivered by various members of the faculty of Sha’alvim for Women.

S.E.M. stands (good-humoredly) for "Squeezing Every Minute" and represents an important philosophy at SFW: every minute counts and every minute can be used productively. Torah must be learned deeply and profoundly on the highest levels possible. However, even when you find that you have only a few moments, we believe that opportunities - like listening to this S.E.M. Torah - are always available…. if you know where to look!

Tiyul to Neot Kedumim!

On Monday we went to Neot Kedumim where we learned about Israel's water supply and the importance of every drop.

We also acquired some new skills such as sheep-herding.

We had the opportunity to see the different types of sukka mentioned in the Mishna.









We ate carobs and then used their seeds to find the smallest measuring unit.

We made besamim from haddasim, and were also fortunate to be able to taste some date honey!

It was a great start to Bein Hazmanim!

Building the SFW Sukkah!

This week, we built our very own SFW sukkah!

Once the construction was completed - without any instructions - we decorated it.

Now, we just have to wait for Sukkot to arrive!

Chessed at Yad Eliezer!

We began our weekly chesed program with a trip to Yad Eliezer. There, the girls from both Shana Aleph and Bet sorted and packaged food for needy families living in the Jerusalem area. Not only did the girls have an opportunity volunteering for such a great chesed organization, they had a wonderful time as well!

We hope this is a positive start to a chesed-filled year!

Tiyul to Biyar!

On the first Thursday, the entire student body went on a tiyul to Kfar Etzion and Biyar.







We had a great time bonding and getting to know each other and, at the same time, appreciating the beautiful land that we have been given!


The tiyul ended with a wonderful barbecue that the girls themselves - with the help of their shana bet friends - prepared!
