Eleanor’s Bat Mitzvah was the last in the trilogy of Brookes Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, all well organised, high energy and joyous affairs at Belsize Square Synagogue.
Reception was in the Hall, followed by Havdalah, dancing and dinner in the Sanctuary.
Highlights were the cameo by Eleanor singing an Ed Sheeran song accompanied by Shir, and a performance by Eleanor’s father’s accapella group, Jonah and The Wailers.
The Led Israeli Dancing set is always a strong point with the Brookes family as they, and many of their friends, are ex Habonim Dror members with a strong Israeli connection.
