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]

Christ and the Bible?

Wednesday today? **

Materialism still unfortunately very much an evil of our society today.
Personally I think every school year should include an assembly on this topic.
As of January 2018 it is the only TES assembly on Materialism!
**It covers the following; **
1. What is materialism?
2. What is the problem with materialism?
3. What is the solution to materialism?
It is aimed at Secondary school children but can be adapted to Primary children or used in an RE lesson.
It includes the following:
Suggested songs: the Flying Lizards 1979:Money That’s What I want
Others could be Madonna’s ‘Material Girl’ , Spice Girls ‘Tell You What I Want’ or Lennon’s ‘Imagine’.
Video: an extract from ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ (Clean) to show the destructive powers of money on character.
A Bible reading
Prayer
Current research stats: an extract from the ‘Guardian’ of last year-2017.
This is the beginning of a realisation that: if E= money then we don’t get to M C squared =happiness.
Final thought
Call to action
Clearly you can easily adapt this assembly to the post-Christmas period or your own requirements; e.g. stealing/lying.
Tell me what you use and why you chose this topic for an assembly.
Any problems or queries please email me directly.
Positive feedback telling me how you used or adapted this assembly would be really nice!
