Becoming a member means you and yours will have named seats in the Shul, free seating for the High Holidays, a vote at the AGM, and you are supporting our Rabbi and the Synagogue in continuing to provide a space for meals, learning and fun.
01
Sign up
Anyone can become an associate member of the Synagogue. You simply need to sign up to the membership category that best describes you, pay the correct fee, and choose if you want to pay membership on a weekly, monthly or annual basis. Click here to join.
02
You're an associate member
Having paid the fee and filled in the form, you are an associate member of the Shul. We will contact you about where you prefer to sit, so we can put in a nameplate. There is no requirement to move to being a full member, and we are delighted that people take up the associate membership.

Becoming a Full Member
Being a full members means you can vote at the AGM, be married, and have a Bar / Bat Mitzvah at the Shul. Only Jewish people can be full members of Newtown Synagogue, and we require a Jewish Status Form issued by the Sydney Beth Din which the Board will then formally approve for full membership.
