NOAM ZIV
We deliver Social Emotional Learning (SEL) curricula, underpinned by Torah values.
These resources encourage pupils to take ownership of their spiritual growth and emotional wellbeing.
Our Vision
To strengthen authentic Torah foundations.
To reconnect with ourselves, Hashem and others — naturally and wholesomely.
To establish a stronger moral fibre, with higher levels of self-esteem, resilience, joy and inner peace within Am Yisroel.
Our Mission
To facilitate the teaching of Jewish children and teens to take ownership of their spiritual growth and emotional wellbeing.
Helping individuals to flourish and fulfil their potential whilst providing preventative measures for those potentially at risk.
What We Do
We provide services and materials for Jewish children, educators, schools and parents. This enables the pupils to work on mastering their Thoughts, Emotions, Behaviour and Speech – TEBS.
They nurture a culture of connection that is emotionally healthy, strong in Yiddishkeit and driven with a sense of purpose.
“Our children are growing up in a world that is so fragmented, so disconnected, and so confusing. The greatest gift we can give them is a true understanding of דרכיה דרכי נעם וכל נתיבותיה שלום – the confidence of knowing that the ways of out תורה are pleasant and that all its paths lead to שלום on every level. Your programme is that gift.”
