This assembly script is designed for Y6 leavers - focusing on being locked in ‘primary jail’ for various crimes and needed to perform tasks to escape to secondary school. Each child has committed a crime (e.g. crimes against handwriting/dad dancing etc). one child from each task escapes until they join a group at the end, who perform a dance - therefore when adapting to suit your class, you may need to change the crimes or order of children. It could be adapted to suit any transition year. Our class thoroughly enjoyed this play.

This Y6 Leavers Assembly is based upon the show 'This is Your Life' - using the duo Ant and Dec as presenters. Their lines are written in Geordie. The script follows 2 children dressed as the Head and Deputy, meeting the class from that year. This resource includes the full script and the matching PowerPoint - you will just need to add each child's recording.

This assembly is based around the Oscars. Each child will win an award and give a speech. It includes a full script and PowerPoint to accompany it. There is also a voting form for the children in class (based on 28) to vote for their nominations - you may want to 'change some' to ensure all children win one award (e.g. best sportsman or funniest). For the PowerPoint, you will just need to add in the nominations photos and names. On the script names will need to be added. The children all get to see their nominations (approximately 3 each), when preparing, however they don't get to find out which award they have won until the assembly (all winning names should be placed in envelopes). I have written 'child 1' etc in the script, so this may need adapting to ensure the right children win appropriate awards, as ours did. The script also includes various famous people (children dressed up) giving the awards (eg the Queen). Our children loved this assembly - being nominated and giving speeches.

This is the script for a Y6 Leavers Assembly based on two children travelling through different eras from the past to find out what schooling was like.

My class loved this script, and is based on 30 children in my class. However because there are many more roles, each child had 2+ roles - therefore it can be suitable for 1 or 2 form entry. Have fun with this script! We certainly did
