| Festival Name | About the festival |
|---|---|
| Rosh Hashanah | Rosh Hashanah means “head of the year”, and is a festival celebrating the creation of the world, and marks a fresh start. |
| Yom Kippur | Yom Kippur comes ten days after the beginning of Rosh Hashanah and marks the end of a ten-day period called the “Days of Awe”. It’s the point when Jews believe the judgement which began on Rosh Hashanah is sealed for the coming year. |
| Sukkot, Shemini Atzeret & Simchat Torah | Following Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur - holidays focused on a “fresh start” to a new year, the Jewish people conclude the holiday season with a stretch of three distinct celebrations lasting over a week long. |
