This presentation discusses the importance of Art. It includes interesting facts about famous artists and discusses how Art is important for Breakfast ( the designs on your cereal boxes!). I have also included a slide show that includes some very interesting pieces of art which can be used a discussion point and to get the children talking! A good starting point to any piece of art project or topic or can be used as a whole school assembly topic.

This can be used as an assembly for Primary aged children. It celebrates weird and wonderful traditions around the world for seeing in the new year. It has a youtube link for the fireworks displays from around the world, that can be played when children are entering the assembly. It then discusses the fireworks display in London 2023 and some of its meaning. The Powerpoint has different discussion points and is very relevant and up to date. It then touches on the importance of the song, Auld Lang Syne, on New Year’s Eve and has a link to a beautiful version of the song for children to leave assembly to. This can be easily adapted for whole school or individual class lessons.

This is a great Nativity script about a Grandpa explaining the meaning of Christmas to his grandchildren. So it includes the traditional story but with a modern twist! It has ideas for some traditional and more modern songs which suits all ages. This could even be easily adapted for KS2! It is all in Word so it can be easily adapted for more / less parts by including more / less non speaking or sharing some lines. It lasts for about 40 minutes and all costumes can be easily hand made. If you want any more ideas or have any queries about anything then please just leave a comment and I’ll get back to you. I can give more ideas for the costumes we made. I have included the a casting list to make it easy to cast your parts. All you have to do is copy and paste your casting list. Any feedback is appreciated and I hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

I have designed and used this assembly to set a whole school competition to design a cake for the King’s Coronation. The winning child from each class will get to make their cake in school. The assembly begins with music about cake (I played this as they were entering the assembly), the Powerpoint then talks about the history behind cake and includes information about past royal cakes, including the cake for King Charles III, with lots of engaging photographs. It then kick starts the whole school competition. I have included the design spec and key information, leaving key dates blank for you to edit for your school. It could be a whole school competition or just a class competition and the resources can be edited to suit your needs. I have also included the templates for the children to complete as part of the homework / competition. I have set this last week and it was an engaging assembly and the children are very excited about the competition! Please see my bundle, which contains another 2 assemblies based on the King’s Coronation.

This Assembly contains interesting information about our new King. It begins and ends with his favourite songs that he shared on a hospital radio station. It contains facts about his life, family and charity work, as well as fun facts about our new King, such as he has a frog named after him and his car runs on English wine! It also contains information about our King’s many roles and responsibilities. This assembly went down a treat in my school and the children could relay lots of the information in the quiz at the end of it! Please see my bundle, which contains 2 other assemblies based on the Coronation.
