TALKS
Introduction To Assembly
In 1950 C. S. Lewis wrote The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is a fantasy novel for children.
Most of the novel is set in Narnia, a land of talking animals and mythical creatures that is ruled by the evil White Witch. In the frame story, four English children are relocated to a large, old country house following a wartime evacuation. The youngest, Lucy, visits Narnia three times via the magic of a wardrobe in a spare room. Lucy’s three siblings are with her on her third visit to Narnia. In Narnia, the siblings seem fit to fulfill an old prophecy and find themselves adventuring to save Narnia and their own lives. The lion Aslan gives his life to save one of the children; he later rises from the dead………
Who Was C. S. Lewis and Why Did He Write This Book?
Clive Staples Lewis (29 November 1898 – 22 November 1963) was a British writer and lay theologian. He held academic positions in English literature at both Oxford University (Magdalen College, 1925–1954) and Cambridge University (Magdalene College, 1954–1963). He is best known for his works of fiction, especially The Screwtape Letters, The Chronicles of Narnia, and The Space Trilogy
According to Lewis’s memoir Surprised by Joy, he was baptised in the Church of Ireland, but fell away from his faith during adolescence. Lewis returned to Anglicanism at the age of 32, owing to the influence of Tolkien and other friends, and he became an “ordinary layman of the Church of England”.[2] Lewis’s faith profoundly affected his work, and his wartime radio broadcasts on the subject of Christianity brought him wide praise.
Lewis wrote more than 30 books[3] which have been translated into more than 30 languages and have sold millions of copies.
Lewis wrote the book for (and dedicated it to) his goddaughter, Lucy Barfield. She was the daughter of Owen Barfield, Lewis’s friend, teacher, adviser, and trustee.[4] In 2003, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe was ranked ninth on the BBC’s The Big Read poll.[5] Time magazine included the novel in its list of the 100 Best Young-Adult Books of All Time.[6]

This assembly would suit both Primary and Secondary students. It would be useful after a bullying spate.
Pupils write and take part in the roleplays that can form the central part of the assembly
It makes the point that reconciliation is based on the premise that if we want forgiveness then we must offer it to others and this is a normal part of any relationship. The assembly can also be used without the roleplays so very adaptable.
It is structured as follows:
Why is reconciliation important?
Why don’t we forgive one another?
How can we make up after quarreling?
It includes the following:
Choice of inspiring story
A choice of short films on forgiveness- You Tube links given
Two spiritual quotes on forgiveness
Prayer on the theme
Final thought
Call to action

‘Judge not according to appearance’

This is an assembly that was designed for Secondary pupils but would also suit older primary students.
For music I recommend Republica: ‘Drop Dead Gorgeous’ and a few other more recent numbers- see PP
I have also included links to relevant stories and short films that you can include to make it a longer assembly.
I think it is a great confidence booster and you could easily link the Greek masks on the title slide with the selfie craze! It is the perfect antidote to the selfie craze! It is also the perfect antidote to abuses of social media websites and trolling!

Here’s a very versatile assembly on Ash Wednesday that is primarily for Secondary students but would also suit older Primary students.
Students are invited to reflect on where they are going on their Lenten journey.
**The key questions it answers are:
(1) What has Ash Wednesday to do with
Christ and the Bible?
(2) Why do we put ash on people’s heads?
(3) How should we celebrate Ash
Wednesday today? **
