Today Rabbi
Scheinberg came to
He
said that on father’s and mother’s day you should give them a kiss and a hug as
it comes once a year.
At last it was
time for us to get our blessings!
Class by class
they went up saying ‘Shalom Aleichem’. When it was year six’s turn to get a
blessing, I was shaking from top to bottom! I asked Rabbi Scheinberg to
pray for my grandfather a Refua Shelema!
At last I
got to see him I was so pleased .
I was trying to keep calm Trying to keep calm.
Who am I for
this honour ?
How I lucky
some people are to be with him all day !
To meet the
greatest person in the world..
It was like
approaching Har Sinai I was shaking so much
I was able
to here most things he said
He never
stopped smiling it was amazing
We can try
to be like him
My life was
different in many ways when I was with him and I am going to try and change to
be a nice girl now that I know I could be like him in some ways
I felt like
something had changed inside me when I was with him.
As soon Mr
Kramer spoke about him I new he was someone special .
I was amazed
with the feeling that spread through me when I was with him in the same room. I
could not take my mind of what he said and with what I heard.

It had been
known for days that Rav Scheinberg
was coming. It had already been rearranged once. The hype surrounding the event
was incredible.
When he came
in – I was amazed, I was physically shaking. I strained to hear him and what I
heard was incredible. He said how there was mother’s and father’s day once a
year but it should be like that day for them the whole year round. Only then
did it sink in to me how holy he was. It was then that I realised how lucky I
was to meet him. I waited until it was
my go to meet him. With my heart pounding I went to speak to him. I shook his
hand and it was the most incredible feeling. Then he gave me his blessing. At
that moment I felt on top of the world. It was a great sensation. I enjoyed Rav Scheinberg’s visit very much.
Adam Bernstein
“There were no Jewish Schools in
Close your eyes imagine that you were meeting your hero
and you had been picked especially by your hero, times that feeling by a
hundred. That is how I felt when I got
on the stage. I felt embarrassed but when I was standing in front of him I felt
close to Hashem and the Torah.
I am so proud to have met him. I also felt very proud to be a Jewish
person. Even though he is a great person
and I am not, I felt close to him and even though I couldn’t hear all he said I
felt that I knew and understood what he was saying.
“Some people think Mothers and Fathers day comes once a
year, but It really comes all 365 days of the year.”
After that I thought how important my parents are and how I wouldn’t be able to
live without them. I can’t imagine how I would manage without them. Then I
thought how badly I treat my parents, I embarrass them, or I get in a bad mood
with them. I can’t manage without them and how I should treat them better then
I do. I know that I will never reach their standards, but now I understand the
true meaning of honouring your parents, and why it became one of the ten commandments.
“You are all children of the future generations of
Israel” When I heard those words I felt how much of a difference I could make
in the lives of the people and enviroment around me,
and how much I wanted him to be proud of the works and changes to the world
which I want to do to please him and show the world how great Rav Scheinberg is, and how his
words of torah and his greatness changed the world for the better.
“Why is she shaking” He is not just a great torah
scholar he is also great because he is so modest. When a girl in year 6 went up
to ask Rav Scheinberg to do
something for her she was shaking. Then Rav Scheinberg turned to his son and asked Why
is she shaking? That I think is a great act, because not very many people would
do that.
Rav Scheinberg is a truly great scholar and a good role model.
I think more people should try and be like him. I know that I definitely want
to be more like Rav Schienberg.

When I
walked in to the hall I thought this was the greatest day of my life .
I
that that he was MOSHE II.
When he started to talk I thought that he was amazing because a man 95 years
old came to our school just
to talked to us.
I could not
really hear him but I did catch a few phrases that he said, he said that on
mothers & fathers day we respect our parent and that it should be mothers
and fathers day all the time .
When I got to the stage I was so nervous that
I began to shake because he was such a great rabbi and I was a normal person
but I was so happy to be with him he felt like my grandpa
He said something to his son about Lana
which shocked me he said why is she shaking I am not that great well it was the
best day of my life
Mirele Fogelman
As I went
in to the hall I was excited thinking that I am going to meet one of the
greatest Rabbis in the entire world!
When I
first saw him my heart missed a beat, the way I thought he would look was tall,
but he was short and had a great mind. Then when he started to speak I strained
my ears so I could hear him, I looked around, and everyone looked so absorbed
in what he was saying, I was so inspired. What was such a great man doing in
our school? A million thoughts flashed through my mind. He was smiling at us,
my eyes actually filled with tears. I had so many emotions at that moment I
could not describe them all.
When I was
going on the stage I looked at every ones faces, they looked happy, excited,
afterwards I was smiling with happiness, my heart did
a flip as I listened to every one else telling me about how they felt.
That is probably
one of the most amazing moments in my life.

I was looking forward to the day that Rabbi Scheinberg came to visit. Only once had I said “Shechalak Michachmato Lireav” In Israel. But this like had a deep meaning of each
of his words and from the moment they left his mouth that had studied so much
Torah. I had trouble hearing but all of the words I could hear made a great
Impact on me. I was moved by the Impact the words had on me.
When I
walked onto that stage my heart was pounding and I had a physical sensation. I
felt that the very ground I was standing on was Holy because It had the feet of
the Leader of the Generation on it.
When I
walked towards him I was spiritually getting bigger. When I finally shook his
Holy hand I It was like I was at Har Sinai receiving
the Torah from Moshe! The greatest Tzaddik who ever
lived in the entire Universe! I felt like the Spirit of Hashem
had descended upon me. To meet him it was my greatest honour, but to actually
shake his hand and be blessed by him was defiantly beyond the limit. This was a
moment I will never forget in the years to come.

Embarrassed
Nervous-Happy
At
last we got to see him
Trying
to keep them in order
Who
am I for this honour?
Lucky
people who spend every day with him!
Pride
in meeting someone so great
Straining
to hear his words
Privileged
to shake his hand – the holiest man in the world
Privilege
for our school
To
try emulate/follow him
People
were asking him for blessings and tefillot
Inspired by his
power within him-the power of his torah knowledge
Lucky
to hear his words;
He
was smiling at everyone
Heart
pounding when meeting him
Like
approaching Har Sinai;
Shaking-holding
hands together
Came
to us to make us happy
The assembly was so different in so
many ways-respect for him
Attentive despite not hearing him clearly
“Knowing” what he was saying- linked by
being Jewish
Greatest person ever met;
“Why are people shaking for me”?
When
Rav Sheinberg walked in I felt how amazing it was to
be meeting such an incredible and holy person so much so that I couldn’t
believe that he was really there, in the flesh, not just an apparition.
Whilst walking up to the stage I
felt an amazing sensation and I shivered, not with cold, but with a feeling of
such a great person so near I could reach out and touch him.
When I shook his hand I was invigorated
and inspired and I could feel the power of holiness surging within him. Also I
thought how unbelievable it was to be meeting the holiest man alive.
Jonathan Metzer
When we started to sing I felt tension course through me.
My knees were about to give way and I and saying once in a while. “Adam be
quiet” or “ Jonathan stop shaking.” When he came I
started to understand how great this Tzadik was and
having this privilege was out of my mind. When I went up to
meet him. I started having the hiccups. As I shook his hand I felt
Torah-learning swim through me reaching every part of my body making me as if
all my troubles had disappeared.
Avi Ginsburg
