At the JewQ International Championship held on Sunday at New Heights Middle School, the four final champions were crowned. After rounds of live game show questions from the judging panel, one contestant each from Grades 3-6 was announced as an ultimate JewQ winner and welcomed to the stage to collect their trophy.

The Championship was the culmination of months’ of work and study from Hebrew School students and teachers around the world, and the team at CKids (a branch of Merkos 302), who created and ran the competition
