The children of the JCCA Forest Hills Child Care Center participated in their commencement exercises on June 26. As shown, they proudly wore handmade graduation costumes and performed several songs before an audience of parents and relatives. Among the tunes they sang were “Sunrise Sunset,” “It’s A Small World” and “Shalom Chaverim” (“Goodbye Friends”). Diplomas and book gift sets were distributed to all the children as they were called by name to shake their teacher’s hand.
