ROSH SOLLELIM

BIANCA ROSEN



Bianca has been a part of Habonim since grade 7 and there is no doubt in her mind that Habonim Machaneh is the best way to spend your December. She is a 22-year old law student and is passionate about all Habo has to offer- be it the beautiful campsite or the immersive projects Habo runs. But above all she values the life-long connections she has created on Habo! From reconnecting with her Channies from the past 2 years to welcoming lots of new faces, she is so excited to build lasting memories that everyone can take home with them. Bianca cherishes her memories from all the years in Habonim and can’t wait to be part of building another unmissable Machaneh!

AMIRA KARSTAEDT



Amira has been a part of Habo since joining in Amelim. She’s been lucky enough to maddie Kesem in both their Bonim and Amelim years, and is over the moon that this year she gets to take Kesem again as S’ganit Rosh Sollelim. Balancing her rosh duties with 3rd year medicine, she’s ready to use her skill set to help make Sollelim the most lively and nurturing environment possible. Amira is gearing up for a fantastic Machaneh  programme, full of impactful “life lessons” (AKA peulot) and magical memories.

ZACH BUNTMAN




Zach attended his first Habonim Machaneh in 2012, instantly falling in love with the campsite and the movement. Since then, he has never missed a Machaneh, with the upcoming Bonim Beyachad marking his 11th December spent at the beautiful Onrus campsite. Zach has a deep passion for sports on camp, enjoys learning new games, and is eagerly anticipating another fun-filled December. Currently in his 4th year of Civil Engineering at Wits University, Zach is excited to leverage his engineering problem-solving skills as he steps into a leadership role with Kesem this year.






THE SOLLELIM EXPERIENCE

The Red One

Sollelim means ‘pavers’. This is because as our youngest senior Channies, Sollelim is given the tools and freedom to pave their own path and forge their own futures!

Newly named Kesem will be experiencing one of the most fun and jam packed Machanot which we have to offer. With innovative Peulot, which they would have never experienced in their Habonim career, and some of the most iconic projects we have to offer, Sollelim Machaneh is always one of the most vibrant on the campsite. These projects include a Habo Burn Festival, Empowerment Seminars, and Bands Night! The educational theme for Sollelim is revolution, as we engage with the idea of striving for what you believe in. Sollelim has the unique opportunity to express and exercise their identity and ideas established the year before.

Kesem are officially senior Channies now: and that comes with some perks. Sollelim has the latest bedtime on site, allowing for more fun to be had. On top of that, in a more general sense, Sollelim are awarded more freedom than ever before, now being considered cooler and older as senior Channies. They are encouraged to use this freedom to set their own unique culture and have heaps of fun, bringing that culture to their hype ceremonies like Bands night, and their sentimental ones like Habo Burn. The Sollelim sites is also undeniably one of the best on the campsite. They have the most renovated bathrooms and Cheder Ochels (dining halls). Their tents are set up on the beach-front side of the campsite, allowing for them to go to bed and wake up to the sound of waves crashing on the shore. Sollelim is not a Machaneh experience you want to miss out on!
