Warmth, Love & Jewish Education

The Jewish Life Centre will provide programmes, events, and educational classes together with social experiences for Jewish people of all ages and stages of life. The success of this will be powered by the well known attitude of Chabad to be warm, welcoming, and accepting of all Jews regardless of background, knowledge, or affiliation.

Our Vision

Empowering You

From a young age children soak and learn from example around them. When they are in a beautiful, Jewish, and warm atmosphere, it will sow the foundation of their Jewish roots.

Teens are questioning, exploring and experimenting in the pursuit of understanding themselves and life in general. Having a safe and loving environment that they can call their “home” with role models they can ask questions without judgment, is one of the invaluable offerings of the Jewish Life Centre.

The Vision behind

The Logo

The Logo was professionally designed by graphic and branding designer Rivkie Grunwald from New York. The vision of a cutting edge icon that resembles the menorah, a universal Jewish symbol in a unique and modern way!

The branding colour of rose red, which was carefully selected to bring the elements of both these colours. Red is a symbol of love and passion, while the rose which has a pink tinge symbolises peace, stability and spirituality. The rose red combines the two and creates an important impact in any setting. Having this colour as the branding colour of the Jewish Life Centre we hope to imbue both the elements of love and passion for Yiddishkeit, as well as bringing peace, stability and spirituality to each one of us, our homes, the Jewish community and the world!

The different branches of the abstract version of the Menorah represents various kinds of people, from different backgrounds, affiliations and ways of life all coming together. The Jewish Life Centre brings unity, friendship and love for all.
