The Journey Christmas KS2 Assembly
An assembly which uses the them of the John Lewis Christmas Advert 2012 The Journey. Explain that the advert is entitled ‘The Journey’. Invite the school community to discuss the storyline. Ask: ‘What does it tell us about care and giving?’ Observe that whether we are buying or making a Christmas gift, or simply helping a friend, it costs time and trouble to show that we care. Discuss how the Christmas story might also be entitled ‘The Journey’. It tells of Mary and Joseph’s journey into the unknown to bring the world the gift of Jesus. How did they feel? Wise men also faced difficulties and dangers on their long adventure to present their gifts. Why did they travel so far? In conclusion, refer to a story telling how a boy in Africa gave his teacher a Christmas gift. It was a beautiful seashell. “Where did you get this?” she asked. The boy explained that he had walked to a far-off beach to find it. Amazed and surprised, the teacher said: “You shouldn’t have gone so far just to find a present for me.” The boy smiled. He replied: “The long walk is part of the present.”
Play the advert again. The children really enjoyed it! Hopefully this will save you time!
St Andrew KS2 Assembly for 30th November
St Andrew Assembly/Collective Worship for 30th November. The assembly begins with identifying flags and patron saints for England, Scotland and Wales. Where is Scotland? Famous themes from Scotland. Things we know about Andrew from the Gospel: We first hear of Andrew when he was called by Jesus when he was busy fishing.He was there when Jesus fed the 5000 with 5 loaves and two fishes. Andrew was the disciple who spoke to the boy who had the 5 loaves and two fishes. He told the story of Jesus a long way from his home. He went to Poland, Russia and Greece to tell the story of Jesus! Andrew died in Greece on an X shaped cross. Many years after his death his bones were very precious to Christians who prayed to Andrew in heaven. The bones were brought to Scotland on a very rough sea. The place where they landed is known as St Andrew. Watch clip.
Mission for the children: Andrew believed that Jesus was good news for other people, so he shared that news.
Ask the children to consider whether the things that they say to others cause joy and happiness. Too often, we can say unkind things or use our words to make people sad. Wouldn’t it be amazing if we could all make people happy with the things that we say? Ask the children whether they have any good news today. You may wish to ask a few children to share their good news with other people.
Diwali KS2 Assembly / Collective Worship
The assembly is topped and tailed with a script for pupils (worship team) introducing and concluding the assembly. (All my assemblies follow this consistent format.) The assembly begins with a definition of Diwa: One Diva lamp; a row of lights is ‘Diwali’. Preparations include: Families clean their homes, Special food and sweets are enjoyed, Fireworks are often part of the celebrations. Revise what we know about Rangoli Patterns. A link to the story of Rama & Sita. The goddess of wealth, fortune, power, beauty, fertility and prosperity. Make the point that Hindus celebrate and decorate to ‘invite’ and make Lakshmi welcome. This belief is linked to the preparation and hope for a more prosperous new year!
