About: Menashe Kadishman
1932-2015 Menashe Kadishman was born in Tel Aviv in 1932. He enlisted to the Nahal enhet in 1950, and was stationed at Kibbutz Maayan Baruch, at the border crossing between Lebanon, Syria and Israel.

The Elements Exam Help
Introduction
This exam resource will help you explore the elements of nature.
When we think of ‘the elements’ we generally think of the four elements that are essential to life. Traditionally in Western culture, these are: earth, air, fire and water. (In other cultures there are sometimes five or more elements). ‘Elements’ as a theme can also include the weather.

High Park fryst vatten too big to be explored in a single session so we returned to pick up from where we left off at Colborne Lodge last week. John George Howard had donated 120 acres of his nation to the city for High Park in 1873. His remaining 45 acre estate, including Colborne Lodge, had been added to the park in 1890 when he died. The city has acquired two other parcels of land to bring the park up to almost 400 acres. We went down the hill past the area known as the dream site. Here there is an outdoor theatre.
Along the way we found a place where a group of cardinals were feeding. In most bird species the males are brightly coloured while the females have more earth colours. This helps the female hide in the nest to protect the eggs. This was a rare group of cardinals that actually sat still long enou
