Kfar Zeitim (Hebrew: <templatestyles src="Script/styles_hebrew.css" />כְּפַר זֵיתִים, lit. Village of Olives) is a moshav in the Lower Galilee, Israel. It is adjacent to Tiberias and on the land of the depopulated Palestinian village Hittin.[1] It was established in 1950[2] by Jewish immigrants from Yemen, but some of them left the village later. Over the years, immigrants from Kurdistan have settled in the village.
The name of the village refers to the many olive groves in the area.
The village is home to The Kfar Zeitim Yeshiva, a Vocational High School and Youth Village for Chareidi Ultra-Orthodox Jewish boys with learning difficulties, ADHD and similar conditions. The yeshiva combines study of Talmud and other Jewish texts with vocational training[3] in Computers, Carpentry, Electricity and Agriculture and Animal husbandry.[4] Rabbinic staff and a social worker tend to the emotional and spiritual needs of the students. The Yeshiva offers high levels of personal counseling and support from professionals including an educational psychologist, and a program of regular hikes and activities in the surrounding region.[5]
