Assembly

Assembly is our time to come together and discuss, reflect and consider everything that happens in our school and in the wider world. 

Each Assembly has a different focus:

Monday: 

On Mondays, we have our Reading Assembly. This is led by Miss Wilkie. Each week, we read a book together and discuss it's themes and meanings. 

Tuesday:

Tuesdays are our Safety Assembly. One of the leadership team delivers an assembly on how to keep ourselves safe. Topics include online safety, water safety, healthy eating and many more!

Wednesday:

On Wednesday, we have our Values Assembly where we discuss our three school values of Respect, Resilience and Responsibility. We reflect on how we are showing our values, and how we can help others by acting out our values in life.

Thursday:

Thursdays are our in-class Picture News Assembly. Pupils stay in their class groups and explore the week's Picture News. This covers current affairs, and gives discussion topics based on events that are happening around the world. More information about Picture News can be found here.

Friday:

Friday is celebration day! Miss Wilkie hosts celebration assemblies, where each class presents a Headteacher's Award to a pupil who has achieved exceptionally that week. We also celebrate attendance in this assembly, with the school bears going to the class with the highest attendance and the class with the most improved attendance. 

One-Off Assemblies:

Sometimes we have one-off assemblies where visitors talk to us about a specific topic. For example, we have had authors present on World Book Day, and local religious leaders tell us about festivals or special times in their religion.
