PJ LIBRARY - VICTORIA AND BEYOND (WA, NT, QLD, SA & TAS)

UJEB brining PJ library to Victoria and Beyond

 PJ Library (PJ is short for Pyjama) gifts high-quality Jewish-themed children’s books to families raising children across VIC and Beyond. PJ Library books celebrate important aspects of Jewish culture, values and tradition, and quickly become cherished bedtime stories’.

UJEB will distribute PJ Library’s carefully selected books as part of its core educational content, providing an engaging and tangible way for children and families to connect with their Jewish heritage. “By making PJ Library a part of UJEB, we are bringing a world of Jewish stories and learning directly into the schools and homes of families across Australia,” said Itzik Sztokman, Executive Principal at UJEB. “These books are more than just stories; they are tools for education and engagement, reflecting our dedication to nurturing knowledgeable, proud members of the Jewish community.” 

In addition to receiving the monthly gift of books, families are also invited to participate in a range of special PJ Library community events throughout the year.
