EAST or NORTH?
Sydney has 2 main Jewish centres. These are on the North Shore (St Ives) and Eastern Suburbs (Bondi). As there are these two main areas we will be spreading the carnival between the two. Transport is provided where required but it will be the billet family parent’s responsibility to ensure each participant is where they need to be.
Carnival rules state that only adults on a full license can drive the participants around. Participants are also not allowed to use public transport whilst at carnival.

On this day the parents will have to drop off and pick up their children from the delegated organization. We will try to assign your child to an organisation close to you.
