IF you can’t come to the succah, the succah will come to you thanks to Chabad Youth’s mobile succah service.

The succah visited Gardenvale Primary School in Melbourne this week, where United Jewish Education Board students had the opportunity to sit inside and make the blessing on the lulav and etrog.

Succahs will be taken down at the end of this weekend with the completion of the seven-day festival. Succot is followed by Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah on Saturday and Sunday.
