Honesty Collective Worship!

This fun, thoughtful and original collective worship session aims to assist children in understanding the value of honesty, through:

• Understanding what honesty is, and recognising why it is important;
• Looking at examples of behaviour that is honest or dishonest, and noting the effect that it has on different people;
• Understanding what Christianity teaches us about honesty and the value of being honest (using the story of Adam and Eve);
• Learning strategies to demonstrate honesty in their own lives.

This session is tried and tested, and has always been really well received in the past. The slides are visually engaging and well-presented, and the subject matter is tailored to the interests and needs of young people. For example, there are references to scenarios and dilemmas that they themselves might find themselves in (for example how they might react in different situations in which their honesty is tested), in order to help them to make the right choices in their own lives.

The session also includes a fun role-play task, a beautiful, thought-provoking video about the importance of honesty, and top tips for being honest information slide. No further resources are required, everything that you need to present the session is included.

The slides are fairly self-explanatory, but I’ve included two pages of notes to assist the speaker. Hope that you find this useful!
