In her opening address to parents, Salkinder said, “What struck me [and I might add, lured me] to accept this position is the electric energy of the passion for learning one feels as one enters the school gates. The walls reverberate with the enthusiasm of staff and the students for their school and yiddishkeit, and for the privilege they feel in being a valued and respected member of the Sandton Sinai team.”
Salkinder, together with the heads of departments, Batya Slasky (head of Jewish Studies), Tammy Nicolaou (head of the junior primary), and Sofia Caripi (head of the senior primary), and the talented staff complement, are excited about leading the school to its next phase of growth and development.
